Robbie Bachman is one of the most popular and richest Drummer who was born on February 18, 1953 in Winnipeg, Canada. Robin Peter Kendall “Robbie” Bachman (born February 18, 1953, in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada) is a drummer and the youngest brother of Canadian guitarist, singer and songwriter Randy Bachman. He was the original drummer for both the Brave Belt and Bachman–Turner Overdrive bands. He is sometimes credited as “Robin” or “Rob” on the liner notes of Brave Belt and BTO albums.
When Brave Belt changed their name to Bachman–Turner Overdrive in 1973, Robbie was credited with designing the BTO ‘gear’ logo. Robbie co-wrote one of Bachman–Turner Overdrive’s biggest hits, “Roll on Down the Highway” (with Fred Turner). He remained with BTO until late 1979, after their tour supporting the 1979 album Rock n’ Roll Nights had ended. In 1984, he declined to join a reformation of BTO due to licensing issues and Randy Bachman’s decision to include Tim Bachman as the second guitarist, instead of Blair Thornton. Bachman later rejoined the Not Fragile line up of BTO for a reunion lasting from 1988 until 1991. In 1991, Randy Bachman left the band and the rest of the group, with replacement guitarist Randy Murray, toured until the end of 2004.
