From humble beginnings to being described as a pioneer of rock and roll, the name Red Robinson became household over a decades-long career in music.

Robinson, who spun his first records as a high school student in the 1950s, is now putting his name behind a new hearing aid and will be appearing in Kelowna and West Kelowna on Wednesday to speak about the hearing issues he is now suffering with.

Robinson is one of several speakers that will present at a better hearing expo being held by Nexgen Hearing in Kelowna and West Kelowna on Wednesday. The purpose of the event is to promote a revolutionary hearing aid which was released by Oticon Canada this past summer. Called Opn, the hearing aid is said to provide people with hearing loss improved speech understanding, a reduction in listening effort and up to 20 percent better recall of conversations.

Robinson will speak how he has struggled with hearing and how the new device is working for him.
