    Robbyn Kirmssé

    Bandleader

    DIVA9 was founded in 2014 by L.A.'s Emmy and Telly Award winner Robbyn Kirmssé...

    Robbyn's live stage experience includes singing with Joe Walsh, Macy Gray, Slash, Brian McKnight and Eric Clapton and she performed lead and backing vocals at Brad Pitt and Jennifer Anniston's wedding and has played at just about every major venue in L.A. from House of Blues, Universal Studios to The Greek.Theater.

    She can be heard weekly on the score of ABC's Mistresses and is featured alongside Ella Fitzgerald, Diana Krall and Frank Sinatra on the prestigious Society of Singers CD, GREAT VOICES, GREAT SONGS singing The Very Thought of You with Steve Tyrell.

    The DIVA9 Band was formed when friend and booking agent, R.T. Barrack asked Robbyn to put together a band to peform at Premier LA venue --she suggested some of her favorite L.A. Femme Musician friends... The reaction has been so favorable that the Band has continued to play at private events all around the L.A. area.

    We customize our look, song selections and line up to fit your vision 🔮

    Formal or fun? Conservative or a little outrageous? We're dedicated to working closely with our clients to develop and achieve the desired impact for each event we play.

    DIVA9, DIVA8 or DIVA7?

    It all depends on the size of your event and budget. Although ultimately, DIVA9 is most impressive when all three singers and horn players are on board!
