Artist History
Bob has been in many bands over the last 20 years, this is a solo effort focusing on Bob's love of Country Music. Bob has been nominated a couple of times in the past by the Massachusetts Country Music Awards Association for Aspiring Artists. Bob won International awards this past Oct 2000 through Online Country Magazine, "Best New Male Vocalist-Europe" and "Best Country Artist Website." The CD received lots of airplay and the latest single release, "I'll Be Fine" is starting to generate some spins. Bob played in many Rock Bands, most infamous being "The Lines" in the early 1980's, which did enjoy some success in the form of generous air play(WBCN) and opening for many national acts(we won't start dropping names but they sound like Smarrowsmith! and Freak Frip! etc.) Bob fills in on drums with various bands when able. |
