Robert Alan Krieger, born January 8, 1946, in Los Angeles, is a musical performer and The Doors guitarist. He attended UCLA. “The first music I heard that I liked was Peter and the Wolf. I accidentally sat and broke the record (I was about seven). Then I listened to rock ‘n’ roll – I listened to the radio a lot – Fats Domino, Elvis, The Platters.

“I started surfing at fourteen. There was lots of classical music in my house. My father liked march music. There was a piano at home. I studied trumpet at ten, but nothing came of it. Then I started playing blues on the piano?no lessons though. When I was seventeen, I started playing guitar. I used my friend’s guitar. I didn’t get my own until I was eighteen. It was a Mexican flamenco guitar. I took flamenco lessons for a few months. I switched around from folk to flamenco to blues to rock ‘n’ roll.

“Records got me into the blues. Some of the newer rock ‘n’ roll, such as the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. If it hadn’t been for Butterfield going electric, I probably wouldn’t have gone rock ‘n’ roll.

I didn’t plan on rock ‘n’ roll. I wanted to learn jazz; I got to know some people doing rock ‘n’ roll with jazz, and I thought I could make money playing music. In rock ‘n’ roll you can realize anything that you can in jazz or anything. There’s no limitation other than the beat. You have more freedom than you do in anything except jazz – which is dying – as far as making any money is concerned.

“In The Doors we have both musicians and poets, and both know of each other’s art, so we can effect a synthesis. In the case of Tim Buckley or Dylan you have one man’s ideas. Most groups today aren’t groups. In a true group all the members create the arrangements among themselves.”

Robby Krieger is no exception as demonstrated in his creation of a collection of spectacular, never-before-seen works of artโ€ฆnow available to art lovers and Robby fans.
Now, through the charity services organization, ART FOR A CAUSE, limited edition, giclee prints of his beautiful paintings will, for the first time, be available to the fans of Robby Krieger.

I’d love to hear what y’all sound like. Is there anything recorded?

You are a great underated guitarist you made The Doors the great band it was.

Come back to the East coast Robbie! I saw you in S Jersey 10 years ago. Excellent show! ๐ŸŽถ

I was fortunate to see you play at Que Sera in Montreal (St Anne) Quebec Canada many many years ago now. I still have the guitar pick you threw. ๐Ÿ˜ Would love to catch your show again.

Saw you live at the Des Plaines theater last summer, was an amazing show! I loved the end where you stood on the stage and kept signing autographs for fans โค๏ธ. I was all the way up in the balcony wish I would have been on the lower level!

Am looking for a Doors tribute band in Australia especially for a Sydney gig.

You ROCK ROBBY! We love you!

Saw him in the 90s in Holland. For me Jim's grave is a small ride but giggs in the USA thats another thing. I will go to L.A. some day,just for 1 or 2 days because there is more to see.

Having fun on April Fools Day - I love it! Keep the music going, my birthday buddy!

Which I could make it and there is a great cover band out at the west coast Strange Days !Saw them before and saw Robbie in Des Plaines Illinois with his son ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽค๐ŸŽผ๐ŸŽธ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ˜Ž

I’d love to meet Robby Krieger. Just have a convo with him about life.

I want to like it because I'm a huge fan of the band. But I have a hard time with using the band to market himself as an artist......

Robbie really love your art. I’ve had this jacket since I was 15.

I’m sitting here listening to Lisa, Marie Presley, and I am sitting here very depressed since the day she left

Scotty would be so proud!!! Great job Robby Krieger!!!

Absolutely love that painting, great job Robby, very talented, also a huge doors fan . Always loved your guitar ๐ŸŽธ work.

๐Ÿ’™ U Robbie! I listen to your music every day.

I can't imagine myself being that age and still remembering and honoring a friend that I lost in my 20s. Robbie, you are a true friend!

For those with a keen eye, he painted all the letters the same colors to spell the anagram of his name! Mr Mojo Risin!

Wonderful work, Robby. You are an inspiration!

Nice work Mr Krieger. You are my favorite Door. Hard to choose between the four of you. Your art has influenced me my whole life.

Got to see him last year at the Des Plaines Theater with his son playing Jim Morrison .It was great ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐ŸŽค๐ŸŽธ๐ŸŽผ๐Ÿ’€

is that just horribly reflective glass over it, or did he paint it on glass? the text looks over, the head looks under

Congrats Robby Krieger ...such a great painting....u always .. let My fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ

This painting lights my fire, Robby Krieger !!๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Would be interesting to see this other side of his art .Lucky the people of Los Angeles that can see it very near.

Great painting

Awesome painting Robby!!!!

I love Robby Kriegerโค๏ธ

You rock! Love you Robby!

A true friend like you, great loyalty to Jim ๐Ÿ™Œ

LOVE The Artwork!

I saw Robbie play outside the Dorothy Chandler pavilion. Probably 1987. He did a free outdoor concert. So glad to have seen a piece of The Doors!!!๐Ÿ˜Ž๐ŸŒน๐ŸŽธ

I love it Robby, The Doors will always be my favorite band ever.

Fantastic painting Robby have loved The Doors since your first record back in the late 1960s.Got my mojo rising cannot go much higher.
