Rob Draper

Rob has written ARIA chart hitting songs, he's acted in Aussie TV shows like Neighbours and Blue Heelers, he toured with folk music legend, Ramblin' Jack Elliott, and once he accidentally stole fifty pounds off Dennis Hopper. After representing Australia at the Americana Festival Nashville in 2014, Rob signed up for 5 years writing hits on Music Row for the likes of Keith Urban, Miranda Lambert and Jasmine Rae at Starstruck Entertainment in Nashville. This is when he realised he didn't like country music. After a near-death experience in 2016, which saw him in physical rehab for almost two years, Rob decided to take a leap of faith and return to Australia to pursue his original love, movies, and studied Prof. Screenwriting at RMIT, wiped out his overheads for two years and learned how to write screenplays. Early on he scored a paid writing gig on an Aussie road-movie remake of The Wizard of Oz, he wrote a Beatles time-travel screenplay for Sony, and he wrote a script about his Dad and some Ford rebels who made history and it had enough clout to attract Jason Byrne and Tony Rogers. The show, Blue Print, is now in development.
