I spent most of my career playing small gigs, released a few acoustic albums, had a few bands, but I find myself enjoying my craft today, mostly in the shadows of my own home studio. I went from weighted keys to 5d Touch, from acoustic guitar to electric and from Fretless bass to 808. I use Logic Pro, Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6, ROLI Seaboard and more plug-ins than I could possibly need. I am a vocalist as well, can write lyrics for any genre and am known to implement a "positive message" into my music over the years.
So moving forward my goal here is to create a one-stop-virtual-platform, that offers a full-spectrum service to assist the business marketing needs of fellow artists and entrepreneurs. Need a promo video? I can create the soundtrack, the content, the graphic designs, the text write up...all for one affordable price, with a friendly attitude, and true empathy for your cause. Got the video already? Let me make the music to enhance the emotions your promo is trying to portray. It would be my pleasure to work with you.
“I find it rare to experience an artist whose talent and personal sense of awareness are equally rooted in humbled brilliance. Yoeshi Roberts along with Acoustic Encouragement are the real deal - musicians offering melodies and lyrics that far exceed simple entertainment. What they provide is the soundtrack for a longed-for world that can and will work for everyone.”
Rev. David Ault - Spiritual Living Center of Atlanta
“Yoeshi I have been listening to your cd "Right Now, Right Here" all day today! It is such a toe-tapping, finger-snapping, head-bobbing, hand-clapping cd. It is so inspiring, encouraging, soulful and soooooo groovy! "we got loooove, all around..." 1000 Blessings to you for sharing your gift with the world! Peace & Love”

“I had the privilege of seeing Yoeshi and his band perform at Steve’s Live Music and was amazed by the energy and beauty of his music. He not only shares a beautiful message of love and positivity, but there is a healing essence is his music. I was recovering from pneumonia and a bronchial/sinus infection and was on deck to teach my “Strength and Conditioning for Dancers” class. It was rough, but I managed to get through two intense hours. During the class, I played some of Yoeshi’s music and it really did help lift my spirits. I was able to power through the two hours. Yoeshi’s music has a very healing and calming effect. Thanks so much for sharing your message of love with the world...

"Its quite easy to get caught up and find yourself grooving to Yoeshi's feel good melodies and after spending a little time in his presence, it's obvious that he has a good heart and is following his dreams"

“Yoeshi was one of our featured entertainers at the 2010 Dunwoody Art Festival, and he did a terrific job! His relaxing musical style and laid-back demeanor were a real hit with the crowd. We will definitely look at having Yoeshi perform at future festivals."”
