Travis Roberts

**Travis Roberts** is a Georgia-based singer-songwriter carving out his niche in the modern Southern folk scene with a mix of raw storytelling and down-home charm. Known for his gravelly vocals and unpretentious lyrics, Roberts paints vivid portraits of rural life, personal faith, and the quiet struggles of everyday people. His recent releases—like the bittersweet "Bellmarie," the gritty "Kudzu," and the darkly humorous "Beans, Rice, and Jesus Christ"—showcase his knack for blending wry humor with heartfelt sincerity, often set to stripped-back acoustic arrangements or twangy Americana grooves. A DIY artist at heart, Roberts has built a loyal following through his relatable, no-frills approach to songwriting, earning comparisons to working-class troubadours like Tyler Childers and John Prine. Whether he’s spinning tales of hard luck ("Real Bad Day/Lone Pine Hill") or wrestling with existential questions ("Heaven Is a Place Down Here"), Roberts’ music feels like a conversation with an old friend at a backroads bar.
