About this user

With dazzling virtuosity and resourceful and innovative stylings on guitar and mandolin, Bob performs an eclectic blend of original and traditional music drawing on many styles, including gospel, bluegrass, jazz, Celtic, blues and traditional folk. Born north of Boston, he began his musical career in New York and Boston/Cambridge area coffeehouses and college concerts in the late 1960s. In addition to his solo career, he has shared the stage with Bonnie Raitt, John Compton, Larry Coryell, Chris Castle, Mary Travers, the Everly Brothers, Pentangle, Neil Young, John Prine, Taj Mahal, Dion, Tim Hardin, Buddy Miles, Tommy Makem, Leo Kottke, Chris Rhodes, Livingston Taylor, Steve Goodman, Jay Leno, Jerry Jeff Walker, Bill Staines, Paul Geremia, Delfeayo Marsalis, and many others. His current CD release on the Wandra label, "Satisfied Mind", contains some of the traditional songs that influenced him from the beginning of his career as well as original cuts and features McCarthy on acoustic guitar, legendary blues harp player, James Montgomery, guitarist Lincoln Meyers of The New England Bluegrass Band, and Todd McKinney on bass. His previous CD, all instrumental "Star of the Sea", includes the electric version of "Transfiguration" with the slide guitar of the late Rod Price, founding member of the rock group, Foghat. Both releases are available for purchase either through the Store tab on www.bobmccarthy.net or through http://cdbaby.com/cd/bobmccarthy. Quoting from the entertainment daily newspaper, Variety, of his performance at Gerde's Folk City in New York, ". . . His work on six-string acoustic guitar stands out. ...McCarthy does one tune in ragtime style and as with the jazz material, seems unhampered by delivering solo stylings usually associated with combos."
