George Roberson was born in San Bernardino, California. He was orphaned at the age of nine. Raised in the deep South, he met Hank Williams Sr. at an early age, and was inspired by him to learn guitar and sing.

George married at the age of twenty and soon fathered three children. He put the guitar in the closet to raise the kids. Self-employed, he pursued a career as a commercial artist, designing trademarks, storefronts and product labels.

Thirty years later, he authored a book of children's poems, which led him into songwriting. After the sixteenth song, he restrung the guitar, and started picking and singing again. Recording came next.

George is currently president of Pearl Raindrops, a publisher of books and music.

He is an avid outdoorsman, an advocate of individual rights and freedoms. He is a lover of children, animals, nature and her songs. He is exercising his strong desire to share nature's beauty through songs and poems.

Wonderful creatures are created each day.
It lifts my spirits as I watch them play.
I hear a SONG coming from far, far away.
I can only be THANKFUL when I LOOK UP to pray.
