The frontman of iconic 80s new wave pop group The Blow Monkeys, Dr Robert embarks on a tour of the UK. Although still touring with his band, Roberts has since had a successful solo career spanning over two decades. His folky sound differs from the synth-pop elements heard in The Blow Monkeys, offering a more stripped back and raw aesthetic.
