On June 2, 2022 Roomful of Sky Records will present "Phil Robinson and Victor V. Gurbo - Live at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall," The performance, which will be each performer's first full-scale in-person concert since 2019, is completely sold out! - Asbury Park Vibes
Victor has an old soul; his music feels like it came straight from old-time Brooklyn. He doesn’t need backup singers/dancers or to put on a tremendous show. All he needs is his guitar and unique vocals to truly captivate an audience. His lyricism is unique and profound, tackling topics of love, loss, and heartbreak. Christmas & You highlights this innate talent, with bittersweet lyrics about holiday memories that are now long gone. - Rising Artists
The song has a purity and candor that makes it feel even more potent. The track feels personal and universal at the same time…That level of articulate emotional introspection is a privilege to listen to. - Music Taste UK
Gurbo’s evocative lyrics find solace in vulnerability, creating a space where the listener can reflect on their own experiences of love and loss...the song’s well-worn holiday card-like quality invites us to pause, reflect, and find beauty in the poignant moments that make the holiday season uniquely human. - Honk Magazine

Bio
"Roots revivalist Victor V. Gurbo and his four-piece backing band create original folk ballads infused with an Americana spirit...Voted the Brooklyn Borough Champion at WNYC & WQXR's Battle of the Boroughs, Gurbo & Co. pay homage to the canon of American song and poetry with a raw, bluesy, foot-stomping sound thats both classic and contemporary."
