Juice started
playing the trumpet and writing music in the 7th grade. No
one in his family played any instruments. He found out at an
early age that he couldn't hit a basketball even with a
large bat. So it seemed natural at the time to try to play
trumpet. Rob Juice fell in love with music that very first
year and was so into it he formed his first band and played
at several libraries and school concerts. I can only imagine
how those things sounded! Rob Juice had great band directors
throughout his years in schools that really turned him into
a life long musician. He continued playing in groups through
high school and college. He was always putting together
groups and trying out new things he had written.
Juice graduated
college in the south,
his
Roots are legends he has studied with Donald Byrd in (NC) ,
Burgess Gardner, Bunkie Green in Chicago, The Great Benjamin
Kirk in (NC), He attended Clark Terry's Jazz workshops at
the tender age of 16.. His high school band teacher and
mentor (a
white teacher in a dangerous Chicago neighborhood back in
the day) had him set
up for success... He
told Rob
Juice ‘Poor is the student who does not surpass his
master’. He was like a kung fu master to him.
Juice played trumpet hard from
the start. He also wrote music from his heart and not from
his ear. They called him a 'city boy with country boy ways'.
He was a square but truly gifted... They said Juice was a
natural.
Juice has been a regular Trumpet
heavy weight guest on jam sessions all over the nation. This
included many recording sessions and many appearances on the
road with major acts. Concerts from 200 to 14,000 people
indoors and outdoor concerts. Rob juice was on one recording
session for a blues Star, He wrote the 80% of the song but
got no credit (work for hire?, not even!), Estimated sells
of 1 millions records for Buffalo Fish Records.
His
revolutionary writing style and lifestyle go hand and hand.
He works out 3 times a week does not drink or smoke. He is a
Artist in training all he does is workout at the gym and
write music and gig on trumpet and that set him on a course
for success in music. He is a Recording studio computer
Super wiz. His attitude, his love for the game clearly set
him above many new artists on the circuits.
