What has this tattooed rocker done to warrant your attention, and why has he been a keynote speaker for a Psychiatric Association of Canada conference and performed and spoken at maximum security prisons?

Found with no pulse by the first responder. They resuscitated him, and while unconscious they rebuilt his skull with Titanium. When he awoke and began rehabilitation, he frankly did not want to be alive. “My identity was lost and that brought me to a very dark place for the next two-and-a-half years,” Robb says. “Men in this society can feel like talking about our feelings or struggles is weak, so I kept it inside. But one day, I picked up the guitar and started my entire journey into music to tell my story.”

For the past decade, the one-time athlete who at 17 barely survived a head-on collision with a semi-truck and spiralled into severe depression, has been telling his motivational back-on-track story to thousands of students across the country, changing lives, giving them purpose, erasing the stigma, and making it okay to be vulnerable and to ask for help. All the while, working on music and a film telling his story.

The documentary If You’re Reading This… explores Robb’s own remarkable journey of going from suicidal to significant. Over the years, more than 900 kids have handed Robb their suicide notes - these notes are all too real and the stakes are literally life and death.
