Robinson was a member of the band, the Modern Lovers, from 1970 to 1973 and was briefly the drummer for the Boston punk group, DMZ, prior to becoming the drummer for the hugely popular, successful, and innovative New Wave pop-rock band, The Cars, in 1976.

Robinson has since retired from music and now runs his own restaurant.
