Salem Roberts is a songwriter and visual artist

His work lives at the intersection of music, memory, and meaning-making.

With a background in visual art, philosophy, and creative direction, Roberts approaches songs the way he approaches images – attentive to tone, texture, and what lives beneath the surface. His work is grounded in the belief that art is a shared conversation, a space where meaning is co-created and where identity and experience meet the everyday.

His songs are rooted in emotional rock that are anchored by delay-drenched guitars, dynamic builds, and the kind of intensity that starts quiet and ends unmistakably alive. The result is music that feels personal and expansive, shaped by resilience, devotion, and the long arc of love.

Roberts' creative career spans more than a decade of shaping stories for others: he has collaborated on content for Nissan and LinkedIn, guided TED at UPS speakers, and provided creative direction for mission-driven brands carried in Whole Foods and beyond. He's supported educators, public figures, and community organizations, bringing clarity, vision, and emotional resonance to their work.

His work has been described as "Playful" (Fubiz), "Entertaining" (The Creator's Project), and “A personal exploration of the everyday . . . and the out of this world." (VICE)

Roberts holds a Bachelor's Degree in Liberal Studies with emphases in English Literature and Religion from Middle Tennessee State University, was part of the Art21 Educators cohort, received his Master of Arts in Songwriting from Berklee College of Music, and is currently working on his Master of Music in Music Production.
