Founding Members
Michael Robbins
Band Leader, Producer/Composer and Guitarist.
Michael Robbins was born in Cookeville, TN in 1959. He began playing guitar at the age of 11. His first guitar teacher introduced him to the classical guitar, which became his passion for many years. During his high school years he played guitar in numerous productions and took up the cello as a second instrument. He was a member of his high school orchestra during his high school years..
His guitar teacher, Mr. William Loftis, also schooled him in music theory and basic composition while studying guitar. Later Mr. Robbins studied Music Theory, Composition and Computer Science at Tennessee Tech University in Cookeville, TN. Over the years he continued to play guitar and compose music but never allowed any of his work to be played or performed publicly. Mr. Robbins spent most of his adult life as a computer programmer/analyst but music was always his passion. After retiring from the fast paced technical world of computers he decided to go back to music full time teaching guitar and composing. He and his wife, 'Kat', put their skills together to write and compose music. Their music is based on a progressive 'bluesy' rock style. By early 2020 they decided to form a band, ZeusNine.

Kat
Creative Director, Lead Vocalist, Song Writer, and artist.
Kat was born in Birmingham, AL in, (we don't know when...she wont tell). Kat was adopted when she was around 3 years old. The one thing her mother noticed was that, she sang all the time. It was always long sad songs that Kat made up. She drove her mother crazy singing these songs, so her mother sent her to church to sing. Kat, over the years developed a unique 'bluesy' sound.
She worked as a nurse most of her life but pursued her art and writing. Kat published a horror/thriller novel in 2011 called, 'Secrets Within'. Kat has also written hundreds of poems. She is also an accomplished Artist. She has painted and sold many of her works over the years. In fact, all of the Art used by ZeusNine will be created by Kat. Kat and her husband Michael began arranging and recording many different cover songs at home, just for fun at first. She decided to put her writing skills to good use and write her own songs which Michael put to music. All of her songs are written about the stories of life as she sees it. By early 2020 Kat realized that it was time to get serious and form a band featuring the lyrics of Kat and her vocals along with the amazing scores composed by husband Michael. And, ZeusNine was born! Click the video to watch a short interview with Kat.
