Информация о артисте
Роберт родился в Блумнгтоне (штат Индиана), в семье музыкантов. Перед сольной карьерой кантри-музыканта выступал дуэтом со своим братом Фредди. В 1956 г. Хелмс перебрался в Нешвилл (штат Теннесси), где он подписал контракт с Decca Records. Следующий год для Роберта был очень успешным. Первый же сингл 1957 г. "Fraulein" оказался на первом месте в чартах кантри-музыки и занял 40-ое место в Billboard Hot 100.
В том же году вышел «My Special Angel”, который так же оказался на вершинах кантри чартов и вошёл в Top 10 Billboard Pop чарт, заняв 7-ую строчку.
Выпущенный всего лишь за несколько дней до Рождества 1957 г. хит «Jingle Book Rock» , произвёл ошеломительный успех. Эта песня сразу стала главным хитом Рождества (и является им по сей день).
Хелмс продолжал гастролировать и записывать новые альбомы в течении 30-ти лет. Его вклад в жанре кантри-музыки был увековечен в Rockabilly Hall of Fame.
Последние годы жизни Роберт провёл недалеко от Мартинсвилля (штат Индиана), где умер от эмфиземы лёгких и астмы в возрасте 63 лет в 1997 г.

Bobby Helms (born Robert Lee Helms) (15 August 1933 – 19 June 1997) was an American rockabilly singer who enjoyed his peak success in 1957.
Born in Bloomington, Indiana into a musical family, he began performing as a duo with his brother before going on to a successful solo career in country music. In 1956, Helms made his way to Nashville, Tennessee where he signed a recording contract with Decca Records. The following year would be filled with astonishing successes. Helms' first single in 1957 titled "Fraulein" went to No. 1 on the country music charts and made it into the Top 40 on the pop music charts. Later that same year he released "My Special Angel" that also went to No. 1 on the country charts and entered the Top 10 on Billboard magazines pop music charts, peaking at No. 7.
Released just a few days before Christmas of 1957, his song "Jingle Bell Rock" was a big hit but uniquely, it re-emerged four out of the next five years and sold so well that it repeated each time as a top hit and became a Christmas classic still played to this day.
Bobby Helms continued touring and recording for the next three decades. His pioneering contribution to the genre has been recognized by the Rockabilly Hall of Fame.
Helms spent most of his later years living just outside of Martinsville, Indiana, until the time of his death from emphysema and asthma in 1997. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
