Rob Fenner
is the lead guitarist of the band, and writes the music for most of the songs they play. He is influenced by a countless number of bands from Arctic Monkeys to Nickelback to Deep Purple to The Postal Service.
Music has always been a big part of Rob’s life even back in primary school, when he was trying to achieve success in a band with Joe W and Joe G, which eventually evolved into what is now know as The Attics.
Asides from music, he enjoys playing football, being with his friends etc.
In the long term, succeeding with The Attics would suit him nicely.
