New Book On the Way: “Jalopy Bands”
Monday, November 29th, 2010My new book of drawings is proofed and ordered. It should be available for sale in about a week. The title is “Ukulelechicken Sketchbook: Jalopy Bands.”
This book features only drawings of bands, drawn live on location at the Jalopy Theatre over the past year.
Bands featured include:
The Dust Busters
The Little Brothers
Radio Jarocho
M. Shanghai String Band
The Calamity Janes
The Brotherhood of the Jug Band Blues
Jessy Carolina and the Hot Mess
Kelli Rae Powell
The Maybelles
Veveritse Brass Band
Sweet Soubrette
The Ukuladies
The Sweetback Sisters
I had a good time going through all my drawings of these bands and choosing my favorites.
“Jalopy Bands” will be available at the Jalopy Theatre (315 Columbia Street, Red Hook, Brooklyn) and from me directly. The price will be $20. It’s the perfect little holiday gift for your music-loving friends and family!

My Book is Here!
Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009My book, “Live From the Audience, A Year of Drawing at the Jalopy Theatre” has arrived from the printer! I am really pleased with the reproduction quality.
This 7.5-inch square book is filled with color reproductions of the 13 paintings in my exhibit (running at the Jalopy Theatre in Brooklyn through January 2, 2010), plus plenty of live sketches done over the past year from the audience during Jalopy performances.
Live From the Audience, Book by Robin Hoffman
Artists depicted in the Exhibit include: Bob Guida, Mamie Minch, Ernie Vega, Jessy Carolina, Hubby Jenkins, Stephanie Nilles, Feral Foster, Tony Scherr, Rashad Brown, Frank Hoier, Emma Graves, Blind Boy Paxton, and Lynette and Geoff Wiley. The book includes all the images in the show plus several live sketches. In addition, I’ve included live sketches of Jack Lynch, Pat Conte, Eli Smith, Craig Judelman, The Maybelles, Jen Kwok, Dom Flemins, American String Conspiracy, Guy Davis, Doug Skinner, Franglais, The Ukuladies, Howard Fishman, Radio Jarocho, Jane Gilday, Andru Bemis, Les Chauds Lapins, Audra Tsanos, and Red Hook Slim.
I have copies for sale at Jalopy. Only $20! You can also order it here. It’s a lot more fun and a little bit cheaper to get one at Jalopy.
Come check it out in person at Jalopy. I hope you enjoy it!
