Robert John Hope ist ein irischer, in Berlin lebender Singer-Songwriter, dessen Musik auf Americana und alternativem Folk/Rock basiert. Sein Gesang wurde als "ätherisch" (Hotpress Magazine, IRE) beschrieben, seine Musik als "Americana mit echter Größe und viel Sensibilität" (Rolling Stone, DE).
Als Frontmann der irischen Band Senakah tourte Robert acht Jahre lang mit der Band und als Solokünstler durch Amerika und Europa. Während dieser Zeit veröffentlichte er zwei Alben mit der Band. Mit drei Top-20-Chart-Hits in Irland reiste er in die USA, wo er fast 300 Shows in über 40 Staaten spielte. Robert spielte auf legendären Bühnen wie dem Whisky A Go Go in Hollywood und dem Boulder Theatre sowie auf dem South By Southwest Festival, wo er mit der Legende Bernie Worrell von Parliament-Funkadelic und Talking Heads tourte und jammte.
Im April 2021 veröffentlichte er sein erstes Soloalbum - "Plasticine Heart". Aufgenommen auf einem Boot im Berliner Treptower Park, ist diese Sammlung von Songs, die nachdenkliche, aber auch hoffnungsvolle Themen behandeln, eine Art Rückkehr für Robert. Mit Plasticine Heart präsentiert der markante Sänger und Songpoet Robert John Hope ein lebendiges, eindringliches Folk-Rock-Album.
Sein 2. Soloalbum „It Sparks“ wurde am 2. Mai 2025 bei Dussmann das KulturKaufhaus veröffentlicht.
