Award-winning audio engineer, producer and bass player based in Northern Virginia. Interest in music sparked by parent's weekly trip to see a polka band at Saxonburg Firehakl (it's why he plays accordion). Guitar was next (a Montgomery Ward Airline received as a Christmas gift). Jim and his brother Kenny started a band which would cut a 45 (That’s the Way She) at a studio in Franklin, PA. Sometime during high school, Robeson started playing bass. Drafted into the Army after high school and served in Vietnam War. After coming back to the U.S., he formed a band Newington Station while still working a day job at Xerox. Joined The North Star Band as bassist circa 1976. Left them to work at Bias Studios in Springfield, Virginia from 1980 until 2014. While there, he still found time to moonlight in a series of Washington, DC based bands including All Night Long, The Dynettes, Pete Kennedy and Good Rockin' Tonight, The Chasers and Pressure Drop among others. In 2014, he formed his own independent production company with its own studio. Robeson has won 2 Grammy Awards personally, worked on 11 Grammy-nominated projects, was nominated for a Grammy for best engineered album, is a 4-time Washington-Area Music Association (WAMA) Engineer of the Year, and 2-time WAMA Producer of the Year.
