BIO

BOB MALONE has amassed a loyal international fan-base through twenty-five years of touring and nine critically acclaimed album releases. He toured and recorded with 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. MusicRiot UK says “His solo work pulls in elements from classical, soul, blues, rock, funk and jazz into a glorious fusion that’s pure Bob Malone.”

Solo and with his band, Bob has played Umbria Jazz Festival (ITALY), Glastonbury Music Festival (UK), Long Beach Bayou Festival (US), Blue Mountains Music Festival (AU), Cincy Blues Festival (US), Umbria Jazz Week (CHINA), plus headlining shows at Iridium (NYC), Garry Marshall Theatre (L.A.), 606 Club (LONDON), Dazzle Jazz & Blues (DENVER), and Clay Center For The Arts (CHARLESTON, WV). He’s been featured twice at WWOZ Piano Night in New Orleans.

“A keyboard wizard.”

The New Yorker

“From complex turbo-charged polyrhythmic soul-jazz excursions to the most fundamental folk-rock anthems, Malone knows how to light it on fire.”

American Songwriter

“Pulsating, roaring keyboard work that grabs you and shakes you until you cry for mercy.”

Keyboard Magazine

“Keyboardist Bob Malone may have been the best musician on the stage outside of Mr. Fogerty himself.”

— Pittsburgh-Post Gazette

As a member of John Fogerty’s band, he’s played New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, Radio City Music Hall, and The Hollywood Bowl and is featured on the 2019 concert album/DVD “50 Year Trip: Live at Red Rocks” and the 2013 release “Wrote A Song For Everyone.”

Bob’s last four albums, including his latest (“Good People”), have been in the top-10 on the Roots Music Report radio rock and blues charts, #1 on the IBBA UK Blues Chart, and his piano-driven take on Fleetwood Mac’s “Oh Well” spent two years on the SiriusXM Bluesville Top-50 Most Heard chart.

Goldmine calls it “a compelling listen” and American Songwriter says: “From complex turbo-charged polyrhythmic soul-jazz excursions to the most fundamental folk-rock anthems, Malone knows how to light it on fire.”

His songs and his playing have been heard on NCSI New Orleans, Entertainment Tonight, Lucifer, and The Hallmark Channel.

Bob is endorsed by Kurzweil Music Systems, QSC Audio, and Hammond Organ USA.
