Rob Younger is an Australian rock musician, vocalist and songwriter. He is best known as a member of the influential Sydney-based punk rock group Radio Birdman, which formed in 1974. After the Radio Birdman break-up, Younger joined the super-group, New Race, who were active in 1981.

Rob and Radio Birdman are also considered founding fathers of the Australian Independent music scene.
For a time in the 1990s he worked for Australasian Performing Right Association.

Is to steal the glory
From the great and brave,
Even more accursed
Than to rob the grave.”
