Bob McCarthy

Bob began his musical career in New York City and Boston/Cambridge area coffeehouses and college concerts in the mid-1960s. During his solo career, he has shared the stage with Bonnie Raitt, Mary Travers, the Everly Brothers, Neil Young, Taj Mahal, Dion, Tim Hardin, Tommy Makem and many others.

Quoting from the entertainment daily newspaper, Variety, of his performance at Gerde’s Folk City in New York, “. . . His work on six-string acoustic guitar stands out. ...McCarthy does one tune in ragtime style and as with the jazz material, seems unhampered by delivering solo stylings usually associated with combos.”
