A Memphis Tennessee native, Robert has called all around the world. Calling thru the Advanced level, RT (as he is known by many of his friends) is the consummate Southern Gentleman. He began recording with Lou-Mac in the late 1980's and along with his partner Don, purchased the label in 1993.

Robert is known across the country and in Europe for his creative choreography, smooth delivery and as a caller who always makes the dance fun. He has been a featured caller at several regional and State Festivals as well as Mexican Riviera and Caribbean cruises.

Robert recently recorded "Country As A Boy Can Be", a Brady Seals tune which is destined to be a hit.

Among his other recordings, songs such as "Biloxi Lady", "Dancing In The Streets (the Van Halen version)" "Funky Cowboy" and "Shut Up and Kiss Me" are very popular among contemporary callers.

RT calls for two clubs in the Memphis area and is a featured caller for clubs holding special dances all up and down the Southern states and Eastern seaboard. His infectious smile and fun loving attitude is what brings FUN to a dance near you.
