April 6, 2018 Mike Cosmic Cota 1212 Views album release, Austin, Coffee Days and Whiskey Nights, country, Music, Nashville, new record, Robynn Shayne, Saxon Pub, singer, songwriter

Austin singer-songwriter Robynn Shayne uses a hashtag to promote her work. It’s called #HustleWithGrace. When asked about the meaning behind this tag she explained that it’s about positive flow, not being a jerk or trying to step on anyone while making your dreams happen. It’s about artists helping other artists rise to the top. To the top is where Robynn is headed. The Cosmic Clash recently sat down with Robynn at Detroit style pizza-pie joint VIA 313 in Austin to discuss her latest album, Coffee Days and Whiskey Nights. This is Robynn’s third release, after her self-titled debut and a sophomore album Rebel Child.
