I hope all is good with you and yours. It feels good to be back in the swing and we are looking forward to more upcoming shows. For your consideration we are seeking new opportunities for 2024.
i perform crowd pleasing blues, bluegrass & Americana music. I work in various ensembles and budgets to meet many entertainment needs. My music is authentic and evokes a nostalgic yet contemporary ambience. I know when to turn on the steam or let it simmer depending on what the situation calls for. These days my hat is off to the young bluegrass players like Billy Strings bringing new energy and fans to the genre. I am especially delighted to see the renewed interest in Doc Watson. After a recent show someone said "that was a killer Billy Strings song", hah, it was a version of Little Sadie, Doc style.
Recently, the artist has been gaining a lot of exposure and moving up the musical ladder. His song, “The Rain Came Down,” won first place in 2020 for the instrumental category in The New England Song Contest.
The band has been recording new material and has enjoyed some recent spins on Sirius XM The Village..
“ Bob brings a nice mix of a Jerry Jeff Walker and John Prine song style to mind with "Mile Or Two". Good work with a band that does not get in the way and a hot banjo break that jumps out”
- John McEuen (renowned roots musician and producer of the historic "Will The Circle Be Unbroken" album and XM radio host)
"We really enjoyed it . It was a gorgeous night and we just loved Bob and his band . I heard from someone on the arts council that people were raving about what an excellent concert it was . The best of the season".
- Judith Secco- New Milford Ct
