About Bobby Broom

A consummate jazz improviser, gifted composer, and accomplished bandleader, guitarist Bobby Broom has been turning heads ever since the release of his 1981 debut, Clean Sweep. Twenty-five years and a lifetime of bandstand experience later, including invaluable sideman stints with such jazz greats as Sonny Rollins, Miles Davis, Kenny Burrell, Stanley Turrentine, and Charles Earland as well as the enigmatic New Orleans icon, Dr. John, the guitarist is at the peak of his powers, swinging with authority and ingenuity on "The Way I Play", his latest recording for the Origin label and seventh overall as a leader.

Along with his rhythm tandem of longtime bassist Dennis Carroll and drummer Kobie Watkins, the Chicago-based guitarist brings his trio's musical approach to the revisiting of jazz standards. The result of Broom's various musical influences is a blend of modern jazz that's soulful and thoughtful and is, as Broom explained, "my way of adding a personal touch to my jazz experience—and my listeners'."

Broom is also a member of the Deep Blue Organ Trio, a cooperative Chicago-based group featuring Hammond B-3 organ sensation Chris Foreman and veteran drummer Greg Rockingham (their debut CD "Deep Blue Bruise" and 2nd CD/DVD release, "Goin' to Town: Live at the Green Mill", are both available on Delmark Records). Their latest disc on Origin Records entitled "Folk Music" was released in October 2007.

In addition to his work as a leader, Broom is also currently touring world-wide with Sonny Rollins's group and appears on the tenor titan's latest, Sonny, Please, on Rollins's own Doxy label.
