Blending a wide range of influences, Maryland guitarist and composer Bob Margolis shapes a bold voice as a contemporary jazz-rock instrumentalist.
Margolis thrives on playing diverse styles from years as a freelance musician, session player, teacher and fronting his own jazz and blues groups. His spirited work appears on numerous recordings, an independent movie soundtrack and three solo releases. Bob also gigs frequently throughout the United States and abroad.
Margolis' dynamic approach displays tasteful musicianship punctuated with bursts of virtuosity. His compositions are highly crafted and direct. His improvisations are fluid, melodic, bluesy and sophisticated.
"Margolis comes from the Eric Johnson school of playing; he focuses on tone and phrasing before technique, though he can blaze when he needs to." -Jesse Terry Listen.com
Bob consistently delivers a fiery live performance, surrounding himself with superb players who share his high standards and artistic vision. Margolis' passion for creating soulful, compelling music continues to attract new listeners worldwide.
