Inside the Song
Inside the Song is a concert/workshop hybrid. It’s a peek into the artist’s mind during the act of creation. It’s an opportunity for fans and songwriters to glean a deeper understanding of the back stories, the judgements, the skill set, and the guidelines that influenced the artists we admire in making the songs we love.
Join host, Singer/Songwriter Tina Ross, on the second Thursday of every month for this online concert/workshop. The format is Zoom Webinar, you will see the host and guest only and you will be able to ask questions! Admission is free, free-will donations are requested, and the experience is priceless.

Someone once told Rob Hinkal that what he does to his guitar is illegal in three states. They meant it as a compliment.
As a songwriter and performer, more official compliments have taken the form of honors from the Mid-Atlantic Song Contest(Gold, 2020), Kerrville Folk Festival (Grassy Hill New Folk Competition), the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival (Emerging Artist, Most-Wanted Artist), Washington Area Music Awards (multiple WAMMIES for “Best Contemporary Folk Group”) and others.
Rob spends his Life fronting his energetic brand of new-folk band ilyAIMY with Heather Aubrey Lloyd, Kristen Jones, Rowan Corbett, Sharif and Joey Jenkins. Rob pushes hard to be the trouble that he’d like to see in the world, creating community and music within his band ilyAIMY’s fanbase and his award-winning, nationally-recognized open mics. He is the technical director of Institute of Musical Traditions, the executive director of FocusMusic, and a freelance audio and video engineer working closely with additional clients when and if he sees fit.
