Robb Nash is becoming nationally known for leaving a successful music career in order to share his story and inspire young
people from coast to coast.
Robb was the victim of a serious car accident involving a semi truck. He was found with a fractured skull and was pronounced
dead en route to the hospital. Before the ambulance arrived, Robb’s pulse had miraculously returned. Despite significant physical
and emotional scars, Robb was left with a new outlook on life.
He founded the band Live On Arrival to share his philosophy through the medium of music, and soon the band had 2 songs in
the Canadian Top 10. Robb saw musical success as a platform from which to influence young people. So when the opportunity
knocked, Robb put aside the stadium touring circuit, to speak to youth in their schools around the country, playing his songs and
sharing their meaning.
In just 2 ½ years, Robb has made his presentation to over 750,000 students. Robb is full of life, enthusiasm and positive
energy. Through story and song, he sensitively deals with many serious issues that he’s experienced first-hand. Through these
experiences, he relates directly to the youth of today and inspires them to make changes in themselves and the world around
them.
When asked why he does this Robb stated, “Through my touring I’ve met and spoken to young people across Canada. Many are
missing out on their destinies. The issues they’re dealing with are consistent, and I felt very strongly that I could use my
influence and my music to help. I went through a severely traumatic experience before I realized how important each day and
each decision is. I don’t want them to have to find out the same way.”
