Robert De Leo Official

Over his 30-year career as the bassist/principal songwriter of the iconic band, Stone Temple Pilots, Robert De Leo has been one of the driving forces behind a string of perennial alt-rock radio staples. Now for the first time he’s pulling back the curtain to reveal the full breadth of his range with his first solo offering, Lessons Learned.

STP listeners will recognize the signature chord changes right away, with new songs like “She Brings the Rain,” “What Will Be” and “What’ll I Do,” shifting course and ascending ever so gracefully to the upper ozone of the musical spectrum, where gorgeous, hummable melodies spill over into an array of reflective moods. It's a deeply personal and sonic journey into the feeling of love found and lost.

“The past few years have revealed many changes,” De Leo explains. “This collection of songs represents what has transpired. The journey and gift of songwriting has played such an important role for me. It’s been a close companion throughout my life.”
