Artist Bio
Called a “keyboard wizard” by The New Yorker, BOB MALONE has amassed a loyal international fan-base through twenty-five years of touring and nine critically acclaimed album releases. He played keyboards for John Fogerty for 12 years, and has been a session player for Ringo Starr and Avril Lavigne. His recording of “You’re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch” was the theme in the 2018 Illumination/Universal movie trailers for "The Grinch."
Along with the best of his catalog of bluesy rockers and cathartic piano ballads, Bob’s live shows feature classic anthems by The Band, CCR, Bob Dylan and others transformed into foot-stomping displays of keyboard pyrotechnics.
Bob’s latest release, "Good People," went to #11 Rock on the Roots Music Report radio charts and debuted at #15 on the IBBA UK charts. The second single from the album - Bob's piano-driven reimagining of Fleetwood Mac's “Oh Well” - is still on the SiriusXM Bluesville top-50 Most Heard chart over a year after its release.
Elmore Magazine wrote: "Bob Malone is a soulful songwriter, passionate singer, exuberant piano player and ecstatic performer whose astounding talents are immediately evident throughout 11 inspired and inspiring songs on his glorious ninth album, Good People.” In its review of the album, American Songwriter said: “From complex turbo-charged polyrhythmic soul-jazz excursions to the most fundamental folk-rock anthems, Malone knows how to light it on fire.”
As a member of John Fogerty’s band, Bob is featured on the 2019 concert album/DVD “50 Year Trip: Live at Red Rocks” and the 2013 release “Wrote A Song For Everyone.”
His songs and piano playing have been heard on NCIS New Orleans, Entertainment Tonight, Lucifer, and The Hallmark Channel.
