In early 2018, Rogier Brink and Julia Hulshof, the same musicians Robert still performs with today as a duo and trio, founded the country band Ramblin' Boots, and Robert joined them. Their very first show was in Berlin, and things moved fast from there: before long they were touring the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Poland, Switzerland and Norway.
One of those many stages was Pullman City in Germany, a Western-themed park in Bavaria where the band played, among other things, the Christmas market — exactly the kind of show captured in this photo, with Robert on the left.
Alongside his own solo project, with a debut album recorded in Nashville and international radio tours, Robert kept performing with Ramblin' Boots, including at Wildlands in Emmen and Attractiepark Slagharen. On 4 July 2026 they shared the stage once more, this time joined by the American artist Nate Kipp, at a private show in Wijchen.
Robert is no longer a permanent member of Ramblin' Boots, but he still joins them as a guest every now and then. The musical bond with Rogier and Julia remains: as a duo and trio, they bring the country music they share to weddings, corporate events and theaters.
