Taylor Guitar and Bass

Robynn Ragland (voted "Best Pop Artist in St. Louis" and recently named "Songwriter of the Year 2004 by the 4th Annual DIY Convention in Los Angeles) has become a Midwest phenomenon as her infectious singing/songwriting crashes through big industry walls & sets her on a broad wave of indie-based exposure.  Despite her independent-artist status, her single "People You Know" became a regional radio hit parking itself in heavy rotation on St. Louis' WVRV 101.1 The River.  The limited release of her debut album became #1 in STL at Amazon & #5 at Vintage Vinyl just under Nelly & Eminem.

Summer 2003, Robynn toured along-side Boston and Fleetwood Mac, and also recently toured w/Levi 1st stage along-side Tom Petty/Jackson Browne, Oasis/Black Crowes, Aerosmith, James Taylor, & Stevie Nicks.  She has shared the stage w/artists like: The Jayhawks, Pat Benetar, Dido, Sixpence None The Richer, Juliana Hatfield, Bare Naked Ladies, Edwin McCain, & was the coveted local opener for Capitol Records' Girls' Room Tour & Lilith Fair.

Robynn's "Peace in the Water" will appear in the Fox Network premiere of "Wonder Falls" airing March 12, 2004.  Her songs have also appeared on the WB (Dawson's Creek); CBS (Wolf Lake); Fox (Fame LA); MTV (The Real World; WWF; Making the Band) & feature films "Wish You Were Dead" & "Tru Confessions" (Disney).

Robyn is the sole writer & a co-producer (along-side her favorite guru producer Adam Schmitt) of all her material.

On July 4, 2003 Ragdoll Records announced the first official national release of Robynn's debut solo album "Modern American Female Gut."
