Robin Schorr

Robin Schorr is a songwriter in Los Angeles and the singer in indie-pop duo Blond in Car. A lifelong die-hard music fan and trained classical pianist, Robin never had the courage to create music until recently. She started out writing country songs with Nashville co-writers, then segued into co-writing in pop and other genres with artists in LA. Almost immediately, Robin's collaborations started getting placed in films, TV series, commercials and trailers for companies as varied as Coke, Samsung, Bose, Lowe's, Clorox and Nordstrom's and on series for Netflix, ABC, HBO, Showtime and Apple and a songwriting career was born. Soon, Robin kept hearing melodies and lyrics that were too personal, too quirky for other artists and secretly wondered if she would ever take the leap to create songs for herself to sing. Then she had a chance writing session with a new young producer, Brendan Ferguson Moore, and discovered that they had similar musical taste and an easy rapport. In planning a second session, she impulsively proposed that she would sing this one. She brought Brendan a song idea from a voice memo she had made a year before in Nashville, and Brendan loved it instantly. Together they finished the song, "Who's Gonna Love That Girl, " which became the debut song by Blond in Car and still the duo's most-streamed song on Spotify. Once they got deep into tweaking the production on "Love That Girl" Brendan and Robin decided to make it official. They would be Blond in Car, the ultimate LA band name, and they vowed to release a new song every month, which they have done, starting in May of 2020. Robin came to discover her love of songwriting after a successful career as a film producer and executive. Even though she felt she was never really born to make movies, she climbed the challenging ladder in film from assistant to head of production for prominent companies. These included her role as Head of Production for River Road Entertainment, where she was the Executive Producer of Food, Inc., the company's acclaimed documentary on agribusiness. The film was awarded two Emmy Awards, including Best Documentary and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary. During Schorr's tenure at River Road, the company made Sean Penn's critically acclaimed "Into the Wild," based on the best-selling book by Jon Krakauer. Schorr also worked as a Producer at Lionsgate International, where she oversaw critically acclaimed film, "Frailty" directed by the late Bill Paxton and served as Senior VP at Kennedy/Marshall productions, where productions included the blockbuster film, "The Sixth Sense." Schorr received her M.F.A. in Production at UCLA film school and studied history as an undergraduate at UC Berkeley. She started her career as a disc jockey in the Bay Area. Blond in Car was the credit Robin got on the one non-speaking part she played in a film she produced. She kept it in the back of her mind, thinking it could be the quintessential LA band name, never knowing where that would lead...For more about Blond in Car, visit https://www.Instagram.com/blondincar/ or www://blondincar.com
