Michael Robert

There’s a hunger deep inside of all of us…
A hunger that can only be filled by one thing… one Person…
You can try to fill that void with what the world has to offer… what the world has to give…
But you will always come up empty… always come up longing for more…
For our hearts were Made for Another World…

At a young age Michael Robert discovered the Answer to life and has been writing about it ever since.
Each song marks a mile stone in his spiritual journey. Some songs represent a place of rest or conviction; others a time of healing or rejoicing.

Come join him in the journey. Discover Jesus in a new and fresh way. Surrender your heart and your life to a God who loves you beyond your wildest dreams, a God who has a perfect plan for your life… to give you a future and hope.

“Every time I write a song I feel God revealing something to me,” Michael shares, “showing me a greater aspect of His love and grace, taking me deeper in His love, or putting His finger on an area of my life that needs conviction or healing. Life is just full of so many ups and downs. Worshiping God and praising Him puts our lives, and our worries, in perspective. He is on the throne and we can trust Him!”

Whether rocking festivals with his band or playing solo with his trusty guitar, Michael Robert is first and foremost a worship leader at heart. “Nothing thrills me more than worshiping together with God’s people. My prayer in every concert is that each person will somehow draw nearer to God and feel His love in a new and fresh way. “

Michael was born in New Jersey. At the age of 6 his father relocated the family to a ranch in the middle of nowhere in Applegate, Oregon. He settled into the country life and quickly made friends with the guitar at his early age. It has been his best friend and confidant ever since. Leading worship at his youth group soon led to leading worship at Applegate Christian Fellowship and other churches in the area. The mission field then called to him and he traveled the world ministering through music in Mexico, Honduras, and the Philippines with Youth with a Mission. He soon formed a new band and hit the road, sharing Jesus with anyone who would listen. Along the way he shared the stage with everyone from Skillet and The Kry to NewSong and Randy Thomas.

Then one Fourth of July he met a young, single mom named Linda, and Michael Robert admits to seeing fireworks – literally and figuratively. Marriage was inevitable. Linda became Michael’s grounding and counter-weight; an anchor that holds him fast and the compulsion that drives him forward. Through the ensuing years of marriage they have faced all the trials and tribulations that are common to believers on both edges of the twenty-first century, and some that no one wants to even contemplate. “We’ve gone through some trials over the years,” Michael understates. “Depression, health issues, kidney problems, open-heart surgery – we’ve been through it all. We are truly thankful for modern medicine and the working of the Holy Spirit. There is nothing like watching your children suffer to keep you on your knees, to keep you trusting the Lord.”

With the new responsibilities of being a husband and father Michael felt called to lay aside the music - at least the touring aspect of it - and get a real job. Michael’s irrepressible creativity simply shifted gears and began expressing itself through a completely unrelated outlet. “I started my own pest control business,” Michael explains. “I invented my own line of natural pest control products called NatureLine, jumped in my old 1971 Datsun pickup, and started treating homes.” Michael’s drive and creativity soon propelled the company to phenomenal growth in the Pacific Northwest, and it is now one of the largest natural pest control businesses in the country. “It is interesting how the Lord sometimes puts you in places you never expected to be,” Michael says with an ‘aw shucks’ grin.

While Michael poured his energies into his pest control business, Linda embraced motherhood as the Lord blessed the couple with five more children. With an athletically inclined brood, Michael soon found himself President of the local Little League, and coaching all levels of sports. But the music was never far from his mind and opportunities to lead worship and minister in the local church continued to present themselves.

Drawing on the life of the legendary Keith Green and the raw abandon of Christian rockers
Rez Band for inspiration, Michael continued to pour out his heart in song. The thrill of seeing hearts reborn continued to resonate in Michael’s spirit, and with an unexplained burst of fresh creativity, he says the Lord started giving him new songs, songs that had the potential to impact lives. As an outlet for this new found creativity he formed Michael Robert Music Group. He teamed up with Grammy/Dove award-winning Engineer Ron Davis, formerly of Integrity Music and Hillsong. “I’ve always written songs,” Michael explains, “but during the last three years in particular the Lord has given me some amazing songs, songs that I can’t ignore, songs that I believe are meant for more than just me. The time was never right before, but when God puts a call on your life and makes it clear, you simply have to obey. That’s the way it feels right now.”

As the songs began to pour out, Michael began to carve more time out of his schedule to record. Two full length worship CDs, “I Come Into Your Presence” and “Lift Up Your Voice” were the first fruits of his efforts, produced with Ron Davis formerly of Integrity Music. They were shortly followed up with "Livin in a gray World" and the most successful release yet, "At the Cross". With still dozens of more songs in various states of completion waiting their turn to be unveiled.

As radio stations continue to add his songs, Michael has found opportunities everywhere to travel and perform. In the past year he has shared the stage at festivals with Casting Crowns, Big Daddy Weave, Kutless, and Paul Baloche, and performed at hundreds of churches throughout the USA, Canada and the UK.

The groundswell of interest in new praise and worship music comes as no surprise to the seasoned worship leader. “I think people are hungry for more than just a rock concert. There is a place in all of us that only worshiping God can fill. Being able to be part of a group in intimate worship and praise is a thrilling experience. I think people long for more of that. I know I do.”

As the whirlwind of success continues Michael is very clear about one thing - no church is too small. “When I first set out to do this I felt God said to go wherever they invited me to come; to not let money or crowd size dictate where I went. I love reaching out to crowds of all sizes. It’s great to go to a church that might never get to see a national recording artist” he grins. “I’ve helped pioneer several churches in the past, and I love to encourage these vital ministries and hopefully help them grow.”

The creativity never stops for Michael. He has been branching out into other areas of music ministry by both co-writing and producing CDs for two new artists on his label. “Working with other musicians is very exciting for me. Seeing these musicians answer the call God has given them, and knowing that I had a part in that, is so fulfilling.” In the last year M.R. Music group has signed two other artists to the label, and is in the midst of a deal for distribution with Universal.

Whether rocking hard with a full band or gently strumming a peace-evoking worship ballad on his trusty acoustic guitar, one thing is certain for Michael Robert – he loves the thrill of leading people into the presence of God. “I may be a little older than most touring Christian artists,” Michael grins, “but I’ve got a lot of life under my belt, a lot of life in front of me, and a lot more to write about.”

MICHAEL ROBERT INTERVIEW:

TITLE: Michael Robert: Musician with a Mission
By: Grace S. Cartwright, CCM Magazine

Twenty years ago, Michael Robert Smith was sure that every song needed distorted guitar and loud drums to constitute good music. A self –proclaimed “eighties rocker”, Robert was living his dream, opening for the likes of Skillet, Newsong, The Kry, and Randy Thomas. Robert married, adopted a son and felt God called him to stay home and minister to his wife, family, and local church. Today, he says the inspiration for his songs stems from his marriage, six children, and his life as a large business owner. How did this rocker transform into a self assured worship leader and prolific songwriter? Certainly not without hard work, a well-worn guitar, and, he notes, “a very, very faithful God.”
Robert is very comfortable on the acoustic guitar. Heis strength is His powerful vocals, there are tinges of various influences shining through. Among those whom he cites as influences are the gritty vocals of Todd Agnew and the signature Southern-rock growl from Third Day frontman Mac Powell.
Michael Robert is clearly a family man, and he makes no qualms about emphasizing where his priorities really lie. His voice takes on a softer, possessive tone when the subject moves to his family. “We have been married sixteen years, and we work hard on our marriage. With six kids, we can’t afford to let our relationship break.” Though relatively soft spoken in person, Robert slips into a steady confidence when you ask him about the music business. “Even though I am not signed with a label right now, I will just keep pressing on and being obedient to the call God has put on my life.”
Having just celebrated the dual-release of two worship albums, Robert is no stranger to the recording studio. “What I love about music is there is no wrong answer, you can just create.” Co-producing with him is engineer Ron Davis, whose lengthy resume includes “Shout to the Lord”.
While many artists are chasing down record labels and are after large tour billings, performing hundreds of concerts per year. Robert shies away from long tours that would take him far from his family, instead he will be doing half that. Many listeners will certainly wonder why return to music now. He stops to consider the question, “Every time I write a song, I am so overwhelmed, sometimes it wipes me out for days. I think, ‘God why give this to me? I’m just some guy in Oregon.’ Now God is opening doors, my whole family believes now is the time.

No one meeting Michael Robert would equate the peaceful, unassuming early forty-something man with the
wide grin and firm handshake as a high-octane thrill seeker - and that is just the way he likes it. He is not,
after all, the kind of guy who jumps out of airplanes or jet-sets to high stakes poker tournaments. But a thrill
seeker he is, nonetheless. You see, Michael Robert is a worship leader at heart. If you check out very much
of your Bible, you’ll find those were the guys on the front lines when it came to warfare – both the physical
and spiritual kind. And so it is that Michael finds his greatest thrill in seeing people fall to their knees and
worship a Holy God.

Michael is, by his own admission, something of a driven, disciplined man, with a creative streak a mile wide.
Raised in a Christian home on a ranch in The-Middle-of-Nowhere, Oregon, he made friends with the guitar
at an early age; and it has been his best friend and confidant ever since. Leading worship at his youth group
led to missionary work in Mexico, Honduras, and the Philippines, but once back in the States, it wasn’t long
before his guitar began luring him back into its embrace. Soon he formed a new band and hit the road,
sharing Jesus with anyone who would listen. Along the way he shared the stage with everyone from Skillet
and The Kry to NewSong and Randy Thomas.

Then one Fourth of July, he met a young, single mom named Linda and Michael Robert admits to seeing
fireworks – literally and figuratively. Marriage was inevitable. Linda became Michael’s grounding and
counter-weight; an anchor that holds him fast; the compulsion that drives him forward. Through the ensuing
years of marriage they have faced all the trials and tribulations that are common to believers on both edges
of the twenty-first century; and some that no one wants to even contemplate.
“We’ve gone through some trials over the years,” Michael understates. “Depression, health issues, kidney
problems, open-heart surgery – we’ve been through it all. We are truly thankful for modern medicine and
the working of the Holy Spirit. There is nothing like being kept on your knees to keep you humble before the
Lord.”
Although the new responsibilities of being a husband and father meant laying aside the music - at least the
touring aspect of it - and getting a real job, Michael’s irrepressible creativity simply shifted gears and began
expressing itself through a completely unrelated outlet.

“I started my own pest control business,” Michael explains. “I invented my own line of natural pest control
products, jumped in my old, 1971 Datsun pickup and started treating homes.” Michael’s drive and creativity
soon propelled the company to phenomenal growth in the Pacific Northwest and it is now one of the largest
natural pest control businesses in the country. “It is interesting how the Lord sometimes puts you in places
you never expected to be,” Michael says with an ‘aw shucks’ grin.

While Michael poured his energies into his pest control business, Linda embraced motherhood as the Lord
blessed the couple with five more children. With an athletically inclined brood, Michael soon found himself
President of Little League, serving as an umpire, and coaching the local high school football, and baseball teams. But the music was never far from his mind and opportunities for ministry continued to present themselves.

Drawing on the life of the legendary Keith Green and the raw abandon of Christian rockers, Rez Band, for
inspiration, Michael continued to pour out his heart in song. He soon found himself leading worship for
congregations both small and large. The thrill of seeing hearts reborn continued to resonate in Michael’s
spirit, and with an unexplained burst of fresh creativity, he says the Lord started giving him new songs that
had the potential to impact lives. He formed Michael Robert Music as an outlet for that creativity.
“I’ve always written songs,” Michael explains, “but during the last three years in particular the Lord has
given me some amazing songs, songs that I can’t ignore, songs that I believe are meant for more than just
me. The time was never right before, but when God puts a call on your life and makes it clear, you simply
have to obey. That’s the way it is right now.”

As the songs began to pour out, Michael began to carve more time out of his schedule to record. Two full length
worship CDs, “I Come Into Your Presence” and “Lift Up Your Voice” were the first fruits of his efforts, produced with Ron Davis formerly of Integrity Music. They were shortly followed up with "Livin in a gray World" and the most successful release yet "At the Cross". With still dozens of more songs in various states of completion waiting their turn to be unveiled.

As his songs impact the airwaves, Michael has found new opportunities to travel and minister to congregations who might never see a national recording artist. “I love leading worship at little churches,” he grins. “There is nothing like walking into a congregation of 80 people and doing a worship rock concert. I just love it. I love to encourage these small churches and hopefully help them grow. As an evangelist and teacher, that is where my heart is. These days everyone seems to think the mega-church is where it is at, but I think most of the work of the Spirit is done in these little churches where people actually know each other, and the accountability is strong.”

The groundswell of interest in new praise and worship music comes as no surprise to the seasoned worship
leader, but he does admit to being a bit bemused by it. “It seems like the hot thing to do right now is to
release a worship album, but worship is what I’ve been doing all along,” he says. “I think people are hungry
for more than just a rock concert. There is a place in all of us that only worship can fill. Being able to be a
part of a group in worship and praise is a thrilling experience. I think people long for that. I know I do.”
Whether rocking hard with a full band or gently strumming a peace-evoking worship ballad on his trusty
acoustic guitar, one thing is certain for Michael Robert - the thrill of leading people into the presence of God
through worship is back. “I may be a little older than your normal, emerging Christian artist,” Michael grins,
“but I’ve got a lot of life under my belt, a lot of life in front of me, and quite frankly, a lot more to write
about.”
