Singer Charlie Robison’s Sudden Death Following Cardiac Arrest

Texas country singer and songwriter Charlie Robison’s cause of death was confirmed by his family representative. He died at a San Antonio, Texas hospital on September 10, 2023.

Robison’s representatives confirmed the heartbreaking news that the singer after suffered cardiac arrest and other complications.

Charles Fitzgerald Robison was born on September 1, 1964, in Houston, Texas, U.S. He was a country music singer-songwriter. His brother, Bruce Robison, and his sister, Robyn Ludwick, are also singer-songwriters.

Robison launched his career in the ’80s and released the solo debut, “Bandera,” which was named after the Texas Hill Country town where his family had a ranch for eight generations.

Robyn Ludwick shared a tribute to Charlie on her social media account Sunday, and said her heart was “broken in the deepest most irreparable way.”

“My big brother Charlie passed away in the arms of his loved ones. Please play some Charlie Robison on Repeat. He would want it that way,” she wrote on Facebook.

He grew up playing music with his brother Bruce and released nine albums throughout his professional career.

Following his 1995 album, he attempted to go more mainstream, but as he wrote on his website, did not want to be “boxed-in” with his music or persona.

“After a brief deal with a Nashville major label that ended because of his refusal to be artistically boxed-in and packaged as the latest hunky hat act, he signed with Sony Music‘s Lucky Dog label and released two studio albums,” Robison’s bio said.

“It is with a heavy heart that I share the news that my husband, Charlie Robison, has passed away today, surrounded by his family and friends.

“My heart is broken. Please pray for me, our children and our family,” Kristen wrote.

Robison’s 2001 album “Step Right Up” produced his only Top 40 country song, “I Want You Bad.”

He served as a judge on the USA Network’s “Nashville Star,” a reality TV show where competitors live together while vying for a recording contract in the country music industry.

“WE appreciate all of the fans, venues and promoters for their patience and support during this time. We will keep everyone in the loop on his progress and recovery.”
