Rob Landes & The Rob Landes Trio
Rob began studying the piano at the age of three and made his debut on the Art Linkletter House Party program at the age of four, receiving great applause and kudos from both Mr. Linkletter and Tommy Dorsey, who was on the same broadcast.
In the late 60s Landes was the keyboardist with the nationally known rock group fever tree. They released four national albums, and their music is still heard all over the world. In 1994, a CD titled "The Best of fever tree" was released and is still on sale internationally.
Landes was the organist at St. Philip Presbyterian Church for seven years and was its organist/choir director for two. As assistant organist for St. Paul’s United Methodist Church in Houston, Rob performed his choral and organ music at Westminster Abbey and Notre Dame Cathedral.
Landes, an active composer and church musician, has performed throughout the world with Liza Minnelli and Marilyn Maye, and has conducted the Count Basie Orchestra and the Buddy Rich Band in concert.
Rob Landes has been the Organist/Artist-in-Residence at St. Luke’s United Methodist Church in Houston since 1996. In addition to his duties as organist, he writes music for the choirs and performs organ and piano concerts both at St. Luke’s and around the country.
