Los Angeles based BOB MALONE plays a one-of-a-kind hybrid of blues, rock, soul and jazz, delivered with high-energy piano virtuosity and soulful vocals. He headlines over 100 shows a year across the US, Europe, Australia and Asia, and has opened for and/or played with Rickie Lee Jones, The Neville Brothers, Rev. Al Green, Subdudes, Leon Russell, and many others. On TV, Bob has been a featured performer on The Price Is Right, and his music is heard on Dr. Phil, The Rachel Ray Show, Jag, and All My Children. Malone�s six CDs, including his latest, Ain�t What You Know, have earned Top-20 spots on the Living Blues, Roots Music Report and Earshot (Canada) radio charts, are played on over 300 NPR and A3 radio stations, on Sirius Radio�s Bluesville and The Village, and syndicated shows Car Talk, Acoustic Caf�, and Woodsongs Old-Time Radio Hour. Bob is a four-time recipient of the ASCAP Plus Award for independent musicians.
�A new peak in what�s been a rather mountainous career, Malone�s latest shows off everything that makes him great and more�the kind of record you can listen to over and over, the way records used to be. Great songs, amazing production and playing, it doesn�t get much better than this.� American Songwriter
�US blues pianist Bob Malone cakewalked all over the keys with rip-roaring pyrotechnics that were part skill and part showmanship, often eschewing the piano stool and jumping around like a rock star�[but] in such soul-baring numbers as Ing�nue and Butterfly, head-tossing antics were put aside for a far more engrossing melancholic sweetness. Beneath the banter and the wizardry Bob Malone revealed a raw and splendidly large heart.� The West Australian
�The presence of first-call players like Leland Sklar, Chris Trujillo, and Marty Rifkin, plus stellar guitar work from producer Bob DeMarco alongside the artist�s New Orleans drenched piano, raises the bar for this troubadour. On his 6th CD, Bob Malone is clearly in the big leagues� Music Connection
�Bob Malone doesn't just accompany himself on piano. He supports his singing with pulsating, roaring keyboard work that grabs you and shakes you until you cry for mercy.� Keyboard Magazine
We are very much looking forward to this (even if we may both need to consider a disco nap before then !)
