Bob Harp is a singer & songwriter of moody folk music rooted in a timeless Americana tradition. His album Good Misery covers road weary travels in melancholy, driving tones.

 

Accompanied by his guitar and harmonicas, Bob plays regularly throughout the San Francisco area and West Coast. His influences include the alt. country revival of the 1990’s (Gillian Welch, Whiskeytown), but are rooted further back in melodic folk and roots rock of late the 1960’s and 1970’s (Neil Young, Van Morrison).

 

Good Misery was released in summer of 2005 and is available in record stores throughout the San Francisco area, online, and iTunes for download. The tracks ‘Nashville Ballad’ and ‘Another Day’ have been played on Bay area radio stations KUSF and KPFA, where Bob has also played live in studio several times on long running roots music shows ‘Los Gatos Superhighway’ and ‘Sing Out!’

 

Bob is currently preparing material for a new album due for release in late 2008.
