ROBERT BOBBY
THE ROBERT BOBBY TRIO



The Robert Bobby Trio has been the primary performance vehicle for Robert Bobby music.  In the last few years we have had the pleasure of opening for Chris Smither, Roy Book Binder, Diana Jones and most recently Steve Forbert & James Maddock..  In April, 2010 we performed live on Gene Shay's Folk Show on WXPN radio from the University of Pennsylvania
.  

 
The Robert Bobby Trio consists of :

ROBERT BOBBY:  GUITAR & VOCALS
BILL NORK:  GUITAR, MANDOLIN, DOBRO, GITJO & VOCALS
MRS. BOBBY: BASS

Robert Bobby has been a staple of the Central Pennsylvania music scene for more decades than Tim McCarver played major league ball, and has been favorably reviewed by music critics in Rolling Stone, The Village Voice, Sing Out! and numerous other publications. He is known for his way with words, his passionate voice and his ability to connect with an audience.

Bill Nork is one of the most respected guitar & mandolin players in Central Pennsylvania and professes to be one of the top 10,000 dobro players in the USA. On this recording he displays his versatility from ballads to blues and beyond on both mandolin & dobro.

Mrs. Bobby is the rose between two thorns. Having learned to play the bass around the time her AARP membership arrived in the mail, Mrs. Bobby is an inspiration to anyone who has ever wished they could learn to play a musical instrument. The York County native brings her vast knowledge of roots music and a joy that is evident in her performance with the Robert Bobby Trio. Above all, she's Mrs. Bobby.


when Bill Nork is unavailable, Bill Hooper steps in on guitar & vocals. If Bill Hooper is unavailable, be alert, you may get a call to fill in.
