Robert May is a Nashville-based singer and songwriter whose music spans a wide range of styles. After a diverse performance career in New York City, he relocated to Nashville in 2023, where his creative vision continues to evolve.
His latest release, Christmas, is an eclectic holiday album shaped by his new home. Featuring Nashville session musicians and produced by Thomas Dulin, the project marks Robert’s first experience working in a local studio with the city’s top players.
Robert began his career in New York City after graduating from The Juilliard School, contributing to a wide variety of projects as a singer and arranger. His work ranged from performances at Lincoln Center to collaborations at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and he became a valued member of the city’s professional choral community.
Today, Robert coaches singers at Belmont University while continuing to write, record, and perform original music, as he explores new artistic directions inspired by Nashville’s vibrant creative culture.
When he isn’t making music, Robert can be found playing games with his wife and three sons, cooking unnecessarily complicated recipes, or looking up phrases in foreign languages.
