    Downtown is Robin Spielberg’s 23rd album in a career that spans four decades.
    During the pandemic, when Robin’s tour dates came to a halt, she pivoted to live-streaming from her home Steinway with the help of her husband/producer, Larry Kosson. These livestreams offered an opportunity for connection and community, and as more and more people tuned in to Robin’s unique 90 minute set, the show became branded as “Robin’s Piano Bar.” The couple went from streaming using iPhones in 2020 to a HD 5-camera set up that now broadcasts on Fridays on five platforms (Facebook, Bandcamp, LinkedIn, Youtube and TwitchTV.) Robin has now performed 210 livestream concerts and continues to do so when not on tour. She has never repeated a set, and each week learns and arranges new songs to fit within a theme, while incorporating her original compositions.
    Downtown contains some listener favorites from “Robin’s Piano Bar."

    Includes digital pre-order of Downtown. You get 1 track now (streaming via the free Bandcamp app and also available as a high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more), plus the complete album the moment it’s released.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you're alone and life is making you lonely
You can always go downtown
When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know, downtown

[Pre-Chorus]
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
[Chorus]
So go downtown
Things will be great when you're downtown
No finer place for sure, downtown
Everything's waiting for you

[Verse 2]
Don't hang around and let your problems surround you
There are movie shows downtown
Maybe you know some little places to go to
Where they never close downtown

[Pre-Chorus]
Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova
You'll be dancing with 'em too before the night is over
Happy again
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares

[Chorus]
So go downtown
Where all the lights are bright, downtown
Waiting for you tonight, downtown
You're gonna be alright now, downtown

[Instrumental Break w/ Backing Vocals]
Downtown
