Robert Woodard Strikes All the Right Notes

Related Topics: Robert Woodard, John Mayer, Tom Misch

As skilled at strumming the strings of a guitar as he is at shredding the fibers of a basketball net, Robert Woodard II is a man of many talents, and an unusually quick, willing learner.

He was the valedictorian of his graduating class, a Junior National Honor Society member and a two-time recipient of his high school’s Principal Student of the Year award.

He needed only a handful of bass guitar lessons and tips from his choir director before teaching himself more complex chords.

He performed in middle school plays and covered Motown tunes at a high school dance, before dabbling in the drums and piano.
