About

Formerly played with Shades of Soul and Runaway Max I currently have my own 4 piece band called The Bob Bishop Band. We play Classic Rock & Blues as well as some more contemporary songs and mix in some original music. The band consists of Jon Woodhead on lead guitar. Jon is the long time guitarist for Leon Russell and Maria Muldaur and Ace among others. Victor Bisetti on drums. Victor is the once and future drummer for Los Lobos. Jim Rolfe on bass. Jim has played for many years with The Koles, a south coast touring band and an excellent player who can be seen on youtube as a guitar and bass teacher. Bob Bishop on guitar, harmonica and alto sax. Originally from Boston, I have played and toured all over the U.S. since the late 70's.
