Bob was born in Indiana and began playing the guitar at a very young age. After moving with
his family to California, he began playing in several Rock and Roll bands such as the Misfits,
The Mystical Sounds, Peter Green and Childhood End, which won the Battle of the Bands
award. Growing up, his influences were The Beatles, Elvis, and The Animals.
After putting away his guitar for about 30 years to raise a family, Bob has started playing
again with The Cantrell Brothers Band, The Just Six and a Beatles Tribute Band (Fab Fever)
which appeared at the 2009 Hayward Zucchini Festival, Downtown Hayward Street Party,
and a fund-raiser event in Castro Valley.
While raising his family, the music bug was always there and with the support of his wife and
children, Bob has come back to the scene in a variety of genres. The Blues has always
been a favorite of his and he is very excited about his new band “The Blues Bottle Band”.

The Blues Bottle Name
In 1967, Bob and Gary Evitt were forming a band to be named The Blues Bottle. Unfortunately, due to Gary’s untimely death, the band was never formed. Forty years later, when Bob’s new band needed a name, the only name that was in his heart was The Blue’s Bottle Band.
This website and the music is dedicated with love to the memory of Gary, who will always be a member of Bob’s band.
