Born January 8, 1946, Los Angeles is an American actor, composer, record producer, guitarist, and songwriter.

At the age of ten, Krieger began playing the trumpet, but he quickly got bored with the instrument and "began to play the blues on the piano." Finally, at the age of seventeen, he took up the guitar. At the age of 18 he got a Mexican flamenco guitar.

After graduating from high school, Krieger enters the University of California, psychology department. He successfully combined psychology training and guitar playing in the band The Psychedelic Rangers, where the future Doors drummer John Densmore also played.

When Jim Morrison and Ray Manzarek were looking for a guitarist, Robbie Krieger seemed like the perfect match. In addition to playing the guitar, which combined jazz, blues, rock and flamenco motives, Robbie became the second songwriter after Jim. It was Krieger who wrote the famous "Light my fire" (excluding Manzarek's organ solo).

In early 1969, when Jim retired from music, Krieger took over the leadership of the band.

After The Doors disbanded in 1973, Robbie Krieger and John Densmore formed the Butts Band. Their debut album, 1974's The Butts Band, was partially recorded in Jamaica and had a reggae influence. However, the group soon found itself on the verge of disintegration. After the line-up changes, the album "Here And Now" was recorded, but the group soon disbanded.

In 2000, Krieger released the instrumental album Cinematix, featuring Billy Cobham and Edgar Winter.
