Rob Fillo is a solo folk performer renowned for his ability to captivate large audiences with nothing but his voice, guitar, and emotionally charged presence. With over 100 original songs blending folk, country, blues, and alt-rock, Fillo’s performances are often described as “public music therapy.” His distinct sound, drawing comparisons to Eddie Vedder, Dave Matthews, Jeff Buckley and Townes Van Zandt, has resonated at major festivals like Sips & Sounds and Harmony Arts, and national events including Canada Day at the BC Legislature and National Hockey Day in Canada.

Recent studio releases like This Old Train and Halfway Through the Dark showcase his range from alt-country to orchestral alt-pop, while his alt-rock tracks Insane and Troubled Times offer cathartic, high-energy moments. Fillo has also ventured into choral arrangements, with pieces like Precious Moments, a children's choir unison arrangement, and We Choose Love, a song of hope and peace, further expanding his diverse musical scope. Based on Vancouver Island, Rob continues to perform, record, and release music that deeply connects with audiences across genres and generation
