Robert Koritz of Dark Star Orchestra and my honorary Lil’ Bro
from The Real and The Woo with Lauri Stern · host Lauri Stern
For all my friends who are fans of the Grateful Dead, this episode is for you! I have the pleasure of sitting down with Robert Kortiz, one of the esteemed drummers of DSO. Robert has been playing with them for 25 years and well before that found his way behind kits in other bands in and around St. Louis, our hometown. I’ve known Robert since he was 8 and what I love about him is the way he’s combined all of his passions into the life he’s living now. In yoga we call that living your dharma and even though Robert doesn’t practice yoga in a traditional sense, he’s living his yoga every day by doing what he was always called to do.I love his heart, his talent, his deep love for his family, respect for all kinds of musicians and music and a profound gratitude for the Grateful Dead and DSO’s fan base. Growing up as a St. Louis Blue’s hockey fan, he was always destined to play hockey and become a hockey dad. What’s more: Robert gives so much back to one of the most magical places on earth that is woven into the fabric of both of our lives and the lives of our families: Camp Sabra. It’s an understatement to say how much I adore and respect Robert for the man he is now, even if in my mind he’s still 8 years old. I am so grateful his family is like my family. Dive into this enjoyable trip down memory lane and more as Robert and I swap stories and our connections!More about Robert and DSO: https://www.darkstarorchestra.net/More about Camp Sabra: https://www.campsabra.com/support/Send us Fan MailConnect with Lauri:Lauri is an Energetic Wellness Coach, Yoga Instructor, Intuitive, and Healer who alchemizes her experience and expertise to design customized pathways that help people feel more understood, aligned, empowered, and joyful.
