Robert Scott Pierre (born October 17, 1992)[1] is a Contemporary Christian musician,[2] songwriter and guitarist from Orlando, Florida.[3]

Early life and education

He is the son of Karla and Scott Pierre, and the grandson of Robert Van Kampen.[4]

Pierre grew up in Windermere, Florida and attended school at the First Academy, a school run by the First Baptist Church of Orlando.[4]

Career

Pierre's career began as a boy soprano with a voice that the Orlando Sentinel described as "reminiscent of Michael Jackson's from the Jackson Five era."[4]

His debut album, Inside Out, was released on November 7, 2006 and produced by Al Denson.[5] Pierre's second album, titled Identity, was originally released in November 2008; it was re-released in April 2009 with three additional tracks, including the radio single "Jesus".[6]

In 2010 he performed together with Sidewalk Prophets and Revive as the warm-up acts on a Winter Jam tour.[7][2][8]

His next album, I'm All In was released on July 18, 2011 and, on October 18, 2017, his fourth album, Nothing Without You, was released by Thinkaboutit Records.[9][3]
