Robert Easton, born Sunderland, 8 June 1898, was a British bass of the mid–twentieth century.
His teachers were Bozelli, Dinh Gilly, Norman Notly and Harry Plunkett-Greene. He was successful in both concert hall and opera house, being noted, inter alia, for the heavy Wagnerian bass roles.
On 5 October 1938 he was one of the original 16 singers in Vaughan Williams’s Serenade to Music. The solo line composed for him sets the words, ‘Is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils.’
