THE BOBS RETURN FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY
Grammy-nominated vocal acrobats THE BOBS return to Manhattan's THE
METROPOLITAN ROOM (34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440 -
http://www.metropolitanroom.com/
) for one amazing show on Friday April 27th at 9:30 pm. Celebrating
their 25th Anniversary of skewering the classics, breaking all the
rules and clear-cutting their own unique path in the world of vocal
music, The Bobs have played everywhere from Lincoln Center to Los
Angeles' Universal Amphitheater to Berlin's Passionkirche. They recently
appeared as special guests in Judith Owen & Harry Shearer's Holiday
Sing-along at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco.
Appearing in New York during an east coast tour from
Massachusetts to Washington, DC's Wolf Trap Center for the Performing
Arts, the Bobs will perform selections from new material from their
upcoming, 14th CD, tentatively titled "Meet The Bobs." A documentary
about the group, SIGN MY SNARLING MOVIE: 25 YEARS OF THE BOBS is
slated for release and festival appearances later this year.
Together since 1981, the original "band without instruments"
has released 13 albums and several concert DVDs including the recent
RHAPSODY IN BOB, which truly showcases The Bobs' trademark audacity
in vocal arranging. The last cut, Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue"
features The Bobs as a Vocal Orchestra, accompanied by guest pianist
Bob Malone. The Bobs are also known for their ASCAP-award winning
original material.
The Bobs' endurance is trumped only by their unrivaled
creativity as they continue to infect audiences with their humor
and musicality.
There is a $25 cover and a 2-beverage minimum.
