Robert Schneider (born October 12, 1965) is an Austin, Texas based musician and former lead singer of the rock band Ugly Americans.[1] He has recorded and officially released over 20 studio albums and EPs, many on his own Shockorama Records label. He also regularly releases additional demos, live recordings, and other projects through various platforms. His first major record Lonelyland (2001) was licensed through Universal Records,[2] which, along with a subsequent distribution deal through Vanguard Records, made his early releases widely available.[3]
Schneider's primary musical style centers on an acoustic singer-songwriter presentation, with experimentations in electronic sounds, rock, and other cross-genre combinations. He is known to perform live as both a solo act, and also with various musical groups, including his own Lonelyland and Texas Bluegrass Massacre bands, and has developed a reputation for improvisation and audience involvement.[4] He continues to have a long-standing Monday night residency at the Saxon Pub in Austin.[5]
He is married to Laura Moore-Schneider, with whom he has two children, a son and a daughter.[6]
