Robert "Rolo" Szabo
Добавлен 20 авг 2006
Rolo began performing as a drummer for a progressive rock band called Ear Theory in 2010 in Richmond, Virginia. In 2018 in Austin Texas, a friend, Hudson, convinced him to start singing and playing alternative and pop rock covers and the duo started Good Enough for a House Party which would later include his brother and another friend, Steve. In 2021, Rolo wrote the song "Waiting for the Day" as a result of thoughts and experiences from the Marines. The following year in 2022, he found the song Clay Pigeons by Blaze Foley and fell in love with the country western and folk style of music due to the expressive story telling. It was the most comfortable guitar playing and singing style to him. In 2023, Rolo and Steve started "She Called us Outlaws" and performed various open mics in Austin Texas, frequenting the Twin Creeks Icehouse. Rolo is currently in Colorado, performing in small and larger venues and exploring his own style of song writing and keeping the old songs alive.
Old Number 7 cover Live
a great song written by the group. the devil makes three. I played this at the Green Mountain beer company near Denver, Colorado with the help of a stranger friend named Brad. he was awesome and join me for most of my set this evening. Not knowing most of the songs yet. still adding some great rhythm.

James Alley Blues, a tune by Willie Watson, performed at the Little Bear Saloon this past Veterans Day. I've played here a few times now and have a great time always! Great area, good food, good people. #outlawCountry #folkCountry #realCountry #texasPerformer #texasInColorado #liveMusic #littleBear #evergreenColorado #evergreen #ColoradoCountry

Pancho and Lefty, cover of the song by Townes Van Zandt. First snowy day in Colorado for me, so I rigged up this tarp on my patio so I could smoke a cigar and play some music. He wrote this song when he was outside of Dallas. He showed up for a 3-day event, but that same time there were some other very famous performers in town that took up all the hotel space between themselves and all the fan...

First time I ever played this song at a party a few weeks ago. It was requested and boy did she bring it! Next time I'll put the camera in a better spot so my big hat isn't in the way of the real star. Song from the recent A Star is Born movie with Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga.

A Blaze Foley classic. I wasn't planning on recording this but an audience member did and shared with me afterwards. #blazefoley #outlawcountry

Original song by Benjamin Tod. Recorded on the side off the highway in Wyoming at the Salt Creek Overlook. I wanted to sing this song there, but also test out the microphones in a public open area. Sound quality wasn't the best, but it'll do.

Aug 18 2023 at the Table Public House in Denver CO. I just moved here so I figured I'd bring some Texas to share with folks. Dublin Blues by Guy Clark Colorado Girl by Towns Van Zandt Clay Pigeons by Blaze Foley the foot tambourine was referencing the band Nasty Guy Business Card right before me. I tried using the rode Go 2 microphones but I think there's something wrong with them. you'll hear ...

Yesss!!! Very good 🤘
Watching in bites, Robert. Thus far, outstanding. It’s great to see an upload from you. Hope everything is going well up there in Colorado, brother man 👍🏻 If I Could Only Fly is one of my all time favorite songs ever recorded.
Beautiful!
Not Jesse Fuller...yet - but soundin' real good, sir. Thank you for sharing.
Real fine, sir. Thank you for sharing.
Very nice rendition. I like your voice and your picking. As an aside - don't you have trouble staying in tune out on the deck in winter? Real good video - thanks for sharing.
Good job!
❤
Really great cover. I love it ❤
So good!!
shot on a Pixel? Great to see ya'll playing together again!
Yessir! Here comes another one tonight 7-10 MT
Hi I’m trying to find the tabs or anything to help me learn this song. Where did you learn this?
tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/benjamin-tod/long-gone-chords-2987939 I get most of my tabs and chord charts from Ultimate Guitar. I don't know if there's an official tabbed version so I used this one which showed the chords. I listened to the song a bunch and kinda made up a "Travis picking" that sounded right.
Sweet version. Intimate. Thank you. ❤😊
Hi Robert, the drums were a nice touch! Great upload, brother man 👍🏻
Robert is a cool cat. But, please sir tune that dammed guitar (I say this a musician for 28 years it makes a difference!) Great job though nonetheless brother Robert you got a new fan in me!
Ha thank you and I assure you I will. Just don't watch my other video of me playing in the cold (Pancho and Lefty Cover). Its crazy how you tune a guitar up, then walk outside and it sounds like this. It's crazier that I KNOW this. And yet it still happens. I'll do better next time and hopefully make you cringe a little less ha. Thanks again!
@@RoloPlaysMusic No Robert you were amazing! If you ever come to Houston let me know I may be able to find an open mic night for you. If anything you could get $20 bucks in tips like me and be a classy bar fly!
@@jeremyreagan9085hey Jeremy! I've kept this comment close by for when I might be passing through Houston. There's a good chance I'll be driving through in either 1-2 weeks or towards the end of July. If you've got some options for open mics or spots to play I'd love to check them out and I'll buy you a round! roloplaysmusic@gmail.com
Great recording quality and a great cover, brother man 👍🏻
Amazing cover mate, keep going! Binging you whole channel
That's awesome, I'm really glad you're enjoying the songs. I want to keep adding some other songs like these here. Until then I hope these songs keep you company
Excellent cover, nice work!
Thanks so much! I had a lot of fun with this one
I wish i could do that...
Many stubborn hours of practice ha! Not sure your current skill level, but if you're just starting out and serious about it, Randy's Rhythm @randysrhyrhm (also commented on this video) has some great tutorials on finger style picking to get you started.
@@RoloPlaysMusic Ive had a Mansfield guitar my grandparents bought me back in the 70s. Even have extra Martin Bronze strings. Never took the time to learn, was always too busy. I'm getting close to retirement and been thinking about going to the crossroads to learn. .
@@babbalonian2 took me a second, but is that a joke about learning from the devil? 😂 I need to rewatch that movie now. A little picking each day goes a long way!
@@RoloPlaysMusic The story of Robert Johnson.
Ok my honest critique This is pretty good. You have one strong that’s flat I can’t tell which. Guitar playing is great. Singing is decent. You hit most of the notes. Practice each song with the original song and concentrate on the notes. It’s hard to play and sing. Then put it all together. Overall well done mate 💪🏽
Thank you for the constructive criticism! it was cold outside and that messed with my tuning. I was in the zone when this was recording so when I noticed something was off I decided to keep it rolling. And thank you for the compliments. I still have work on this song and look forward to a professional take one day.
@@RoloPlaysMusic you’re good. Continue to play and you’ll become great
Reminds me of my Dad. Well done, Sir
I'm glad you enjoyed the cover!
Awesome dude awesome
Much appreciated, thank you!
I’m a simple man. I see a Townes Van Zandt cover, I watch it. Well done, friend.
I'm a simple man. I hear a great song and do my damndest to learn it. thank you for your compliments, I've still got some work on this one but I'm thrilled you enjoyed this
Hi Robert, yes sir, he was quite a talented writer. Great cover, brother man 👍🏻 It’s getting cold in Texas
Thanks Randy! I don't think I'll be seeing 70s weather for a while now.
Score! Mighty fine pickin' pal!
thank you very much!
Outstanding, to both of you! Great to see you out playing and singing, brother man. Looks like Colorado will be a friendly place for you 👍🏻
Love it. Im glad real country and folk is getting so popular.
Well thank blaze foley for the song. I wish we all could have known him personally. You did the song great. Let’s keep his music alive. He was a beautiful son of a bitch.
Much appreciated. I hear he was quite a person and I'm just hoping to do right by him and his songs.
@@RoloPlaysMusic your version would have made him proud no doubt!
Well Robert, the audience member was right. It should have been recorded and they did great recording this. This is one of my all time favorites. Haggard made this song famous, and it rightly should be. Great job and great to see you doing a live performance, brother man 👍🏻
Thank you Randy! The best recordings are the ones I don't know are happening! I haven't rehearsed this song much, so I'll do a legit version in the future and it will be better.
so amazing
Thank you very much
Love this song. Great cover brother.
It sure is a unique song. Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it
They did a great job for you, Robert! You’re on to something with this mic set up. Great cover in a great setting, brother man 👍🏻
Thanks Randy! I still have some tweaking to do for the mics, but we'll settle in soon I'm sure.
I think you just made some new friends in Denver, brother man. The video turned out great. Here’s to a great friend 🥃 👍🏻
I'm meeting folks for sure! I've been here about two weeks and I've been out nearly every night playing somewhere. Thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed the songs.
That closing number!!! People just don’t understand us, do they, Robert 😂😂😂😂? Great gig, brother man 👍🏻
Ha! It's a great song and I love playing it with an interactive crowd.

Right on, thank you! I'm glad you liked it.
Excelente!!
Thank you very much!
Saw you on randysrythm. Great country voice 🎵🎼🎶🎸💯 NEW SUBSCRIBER
Awesome! Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed this one.
Killer upload. I can’t believe how much you have improved over a 1 year period. It’s rather shocking, brother man. Was your dad filming? Great job, my friend 👍🏻
Thank you very much! One song at a time. Yessir! Dad was filming this one. His trademark of cigar smoke blowing in comes in about half way through.
@@RoloPlaysMusic He did great! My kind of guy, brother man 👍🏻 The cigar smoke was a nice touch.
Yes sir, you did a spanish song! And, it was pretty dadgum cool, brother man 👍🏻 After this one finished, another came up that that I hadn’t seen. It is hard for us lookers to be humble, right? 😂😂
Oh Lord it's hard to be humble! Especially when "sigo siendo El Rey" (I am still the king)
Nice job! Great tone on those strings
Thank you! I finally changed the strings for the first time in 2 years, and my new videos will be even better!
Very nice...
Hi Robert, your choice of music surprises me. Not many younger folks even know about these songs. Great job on this one, brother man 👍🏻 When you get time, shoot me an email please. You’re in Texas, right?
I'm just a nobody trying to keep the old songs alive. Thank you, and yes in Austin. I'll shoot an email
@@RoloPlaysMusic 😂
Hi Robert, I came back to your channel because I hadn’t seen anything out of you and became concerned. When I got here I realized realized that YT had changed my notifications to personalized. I apologize for missing these latest ones, but I corrected it, brother man. This cover was great. In fact, it is the best you’ve done to date, my young friend. Radio material, that’s how good it is, brother man 👍🏻
Thanks Randy! It's been quite busy since i posted this one so i haven't been able to push anything else since then. Hopefully I'll get some more soon I'm trying to find an email but i guess i don't know RUclips well. Mine is redacted from this comment.
One of my favorite songs great cover
I'm glad you like it and thank you! It's a great tune and needs to be heard by more.
Hi Robert this is a brilliant cover version, and performance I love it, very well done. Like No 4. (I've subbed). Stay safe, and enjoy your week Robert. All the very best. John
Much appreciated, John!
one of the best covers so far, the guitar is great. You play this exactly like Blaze did others do their own version of the picking. There is a name for Blazes style of picking but I don't know the name.
I believe it's called Travis picking.
Thank you very much! I also think it's Travis picking. It's awesome and I enjoy it so much. He had quite a mind and talent to create this song and I just hope to do it justice and help share it with folks.
Great job! One of my favorite songs to play and sing.
Thank you very much! I'm glad you like it and I hope to hear your version of it sometime
@@RoloPlaysMusic How kind of you to encourage a fellow musician! Very well done. Back in the 60's my guitar playing friend called that style of pickin' the Peter Paul and Mary pick.
