Robbie Hunt joined Joe-Boys Sean Ng and Risheet Mazumdar, both now in Year 10, to entertain a crowd of more than 600 at the 2024 Sport Lovers Lunch. For Robbie, who shot to fame on The Voice in 2023, and who loved sport at Joeys, the shift to singing finally came when some of his mates encouraged him to post online – his TikTok clip in 2022, singing the first verse of Jerry Lee Lewis’s “Great Balls of Fire” in his Joeys uniform, racked up 23 million views.

When the opportunity to join the College musical arose in Year 12, Robbie initially opted out, but a friend convinced him to attend a script reading. That moment sparked something unexpected – so he dropped Business Studies and picked up Drama for his HSC, ultimately pursuing music at university.

Robbie’s musical career continues to unfold as he works on music for his debut EP, travelling to Nashville, London and Los Angeles in the process.
