He was born in 1966. Raised traditionally by his mother and grandparents, on the pueblo. He began making flutes at the age of 19. He found his true musical voice in the traditional Native American flute. His first projects were focused on traditional music, consisting of Native American flute and percussion, where each song told a different story about the land around Taos Mountain. All his disparate interests and experiences, led him to the band Mirabal in 1995. Drawing on the legacy of other Native American pop/rock musicians, in 1997, Robert Mirabal https://www.facebook.com/RobertMirabalFanpage/ released an album that fused rock and other forms of music with traditional music,

He is one of the trailblazers of tribal rock. His native state’s tourism magazine, has lauded his CD’s lively danceable rhythms. He moved to New York City, playing in a multicultural band, immersing himself in the sounds, which would inform his later trademark music. In 1994, he published a book of storytelling poetry and prose. He was featured in a 2008 New Mexico Magazine story about Native American flute players. For a collaborative tour titled Music of the Sun, in 2011, Robert Mirabal https://www.amazon.com/Blood-Robert-Mirabal/dp/B000S6LTOC joined an avant-garde string quartet.

His traditional/rock fusion music (entitled music from a painted cave), were enthusiastically received audiences, becaming a benchmark for world music album.

THE DANCE – When there is doubt, there is hope. When there is fear, there is love. When there is hate, there is peace. When there is suffering, there is the dance. A dance, a dance a dance of hope. A dance, a dance a dance of loce. I dance to dance a dance of peace. I dance to dance I dance the dance. When there is doubt, there is hope. When there is fear, there is love. When there is hate, there is peace. When there is suffering, there is the dance. Dance all women. Dance all of you. I dance to dance a dance of peace. I dance to dance. I dance the dance
