Early life
Robinson was born on July 20, 1991 in Phoenix, Arizona to parents Howard and Betty Tryon. Howard is an evagelist and Betty is a registered nurse. In 2002, at the age of 11, Robinson’s family moved to a small town just outside of Dallas, TX. When they moved they became the only bi-racial family in the neighborhood and Robinson experienced bullying.

The Music and the Message
In the summer of 2017, Robinson began working on her debut project with Grammy Award Nominee producer, Otto Price (For King and Country, Toby Mac). The first single was the song “Wildflower” that was release in November of 2017. In the spring of 2018 Robinson connected with Grammy Award Winning songwriter and drummer, Raymond A. Boyd (Jonas Brothers, Israel Houghton, Michael W Smith) for label services and then released two of subsequent singles, “Sovereign Still” and “Everything”. The project was completed in the summer of 2018 and Robinson released her debut album “Wildflower” in October 2018.

Robinson’s primary message is one of empowerment and identity to women and teenage girls. In a recent article in CCM Magazine Robinson states: "“Wildflower” is the title track of the album, and I named it Wildflower because I wanted to write a song that empowered women. I wanted them to know they are beautiful exactly how they are, and they don’t have to try to be anything or anyone that they’re not. Wildflowers came to mind. These flowers don’t have to DO anything for their beauty, they just are. Each is a different shade of color, size and texture. Every single one of them, perfect in their own way. This is how I see women, every single one of us naturally beautiful the way we are."
