Bob Bennett

Literate songs, friendly humor, precise fingerstyle guitar, warm vocals and a healthy dash of genuine hopefulness: these are the tools Bob Bennett brings to work with him every time he steps on stage. And this is a man who dearly loves his job! Over eleven critically acclaimed albums, thousands of concert appearances from living rooms up to large arenas (even a two-year stint on-air in talk radio), Bob Bennett has never lost sight of who he works for: his listeners. "The magic of live music is that it's always different and interesting each night. It's not only what I intend the songs to mean, it's what each listener hears. What they bring into the room is every bit as important as what I bring. The best music gives an audience room to find their own place in the songs. I try to always be aware of that dynamic and to keep my part of the bargain with as much skill as I can." The Orange County Register simply encourages "music fans [to] discover his intimate and beautiful folk style on a range of wonderful discs. Life seems to keep infusing Bennett with plenty of experiences to fuel the growth needed to keep his songs relevant."
