Robert Wilson "Robb" Royer (born December 6, 1942 in Los Angeles, California) is an American musician and songwriter, best known as a founding member of Bread from 1968 to 1971. While he was with the band, they had a #5 UK/#1 US hit single with "Make It With You". He was replaced by Larry Knechtel in 1971.

Robb Royer and Jimmy Griffin co-founded Bread with David Gates in 1968. Maria Yolanda Aguayo once again contributed to the band's history when she revealed a trend she noticed as (Record Producer) Gary Usher's desk girl at CBS Records - band managers generally waited in the lobby but attorneys generally had immediate access to the executives at CBS. The trio quickly hired Al Schlesinger to represent them and he pitched their group to three labels in their search of a recording contract: Elektra Records, The Beatles' Apple Records and Atlantic Records, but Apple did not have clear leadership and was quickly eliminated from the process while Atlantic had recently signed two supergroups - Crosby Stills & Nash and Led Zeppelin - and they were based on the East Coast. Elektra was the label for The Doors, but were becoming embroiled in Jim Morrison's legal battles. When both Atlantic and Elektra offered recording deals to Bread, the group chose the Elektra deal because they had a local headquarters in L.A. and the group felt Elektra would more actively promote them, given Atlantic's other recent signings.  The first album made use of Jimmy Gordon's drumming and Gordon also performed drums with the group during their initial gigs, but due to Gordon's high demand among multiple recording artists and his participation with the artists that eventually became Derek and the Dominos, he was replaced with Mike Botts as the group's regular drummer, thus expanding the band to a quartet.  After three years, Robb Royer and David Gates came to a breaking point because Gates wanted more control of the group, so Royer left the group in 1971 after its third album Manna and was replaced with famous session keyboardist/bassist/guitarist Larry Knechtel, who had previously contributed the piano performance on Simon and Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Water". Royer continued to write with Griffin and Bread continued to record Royer/Griffin collaborations. CANNOTANSWER

Robert Wilson "Robb" Royer (född 6 december 1942 i Los Angeles, Kalifornien) är en amerikansk musiker och låtskrivare, mest känd som grundande medlem av Bread från 1968 till 1971. Medan han var med bandet hade de en #5 UK/#1 US hitsingel med "Make It With You". Han ersattes av Larry Knechtel 1971. Robb Royer och Jimmy Griffin var med och grundade Bread tillsammans med David Gates 1968. Maria Yolanda Aguayo bidrog återigen till bandets historia då hon avslöjade en trend hon märkte som (Record Producer) Gary Ushers skrivbordsflicka på CBS Records - bandchefer väntade i allmänhet i lobbyn men advokater hade generellt omedelbar tillgång till cheferna på CBS. Trion anlitade snabbt Al Schlesinger för att representera dem och han pitchade deras grupp till tre bolag i deras jakt på ett inspelningskontrakt: Elektra Records, The Beatles' Apple Records och Atlantic Records, men Apple hade inte klart ledarskap och blev snabbt utslagna ur processen medan Atlantic nyligen hade skrivit på två supergrupper - Crosby Stills & Nash och Led Zeppelin - och de baserades på östkusten. Elektra var etiketten för The Doors, men höll på att bli invecklad i Jim Morrisons juridiska strider. När både Atlantic och Elektra erbjöd inspelningsavtal till Bread valde gruppen Elektraaffären eftersom de hade ett lokalt huvudkontor i L.A. och gruppen kände att Elektra mer aktivt skulle marknadsföra dem, med tanke på Atlantics andra sentida signeringar. Det första albumet använde sig av Jimmy Gordons trummande och Gordon framförde även trummor med gruppen under deras inledande spelningar, men på grund av Gordons höga efterfrågan bland flera inspelningsartister och hans medverkan med artisterna som så småningom blev Derek and the Dominos ersattes han med Mike Botts som gruppens ordinarie trummis, och därmed expanderade bandet till en kvartett. Efter tre år kom Robb Royer och David Gates till en brytpunkt eftersom Gates ville ha mer kontroll över gruppen, så Royer lämnade gruppen 1971 efter sitt tredje album Manna och ersattes med kända sessionskeyboardist/basist/gitarrist Larry Knechtel, som tidigare hade bidragit med pianoframträdandet på Simon och Garfunkels "Bridge Over Troubled Water". Royer fortsatte att skriva med Griffin och Bread fortsatte att spela in Royer/Griffin-samarbeten.
