Bob is a three-time recipient of the ASCAP Plus Award for independent musicians. Keyboard Magazine, in their recent feature article about Bob, said: “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.” Blues Review Magazine says: “Take Tom Waits, Steely Dan, Dr. John, Louis Armstrong, and Harry Connick Jr., put ‘em in a drink shaker, add sweetener, and pour out Bob Malone…a bluesy streak runs through these songs, and Malone, like Mose Allison, uses blues as a stop on the way to the jazz, big band, and elegant pop music that fuels his muse…. Nimble playing and smart, sassy lyrics. There’s plenty to like here. Visit www.bobmalone.com and www.myspace.com/bobmalone Tickets are $12 advance/$15 door. For reservations, call 845-252-3043.
