Candyrat Records

It is with profound sadness that I announce the passing of Rob Poland, my beloved husband of 33 years, the father of our three children, grandfather to Zelda Mae and my partner in life. As many of you know, Rob was original founder and President of CandyRat Record’s, with operations beginning in 2005. CandyRat Records has grown into being a global leader in the music industry for the fingerstyle guitar niche, as well as the guitar industry as a whole.

Rob was a true visionary, a dedicated businessman and had a true passion for the music! His contributions to the Fingerstyle and Guitar Community will be forever remembered. His legacy will continue on through the record label and the guitar community we built with him as our leader. He will be deeply missed by family, friends, colleagues, and customers.

On behalf of myself and his father, John Poland Sr, we would like to assure you that the record label is running as usual, which will include new music coming to you weekly, as well as pending projects and continuing promotion. Please, feel free to reach out directly to myself, Holly Poland, at candyratrecords@yahoo.com for any questions or concerns!

Thank you all for your continued support and understanding during this difficult transition!

P.S.- I would love to hear from anyone who knew Rob and/or was inspired by his passion for the guitar community in order create a proper tribute for him. He was the not only the love of my life, but he was truly one of the first to put fingerstyle guitar on the map and on the stage! Thank you in advance! 🎶🤘🏻Holly❤️
