Bob Gill has been singing since his early
pre-school years and has played in various configurations from a one man
band incorporating floor bass, guitar and beat box to a six piece cover
country band. He has performed in Nashville and other venues across North
America and has several albums to his credit. He became interested in the
music of Waylon Jennings when he first heard him in the early seventies and
since then has amassed a repertoire of most of the songs Waylon ever
recorded, including "Amanda", "I've Always Been Crazy", "I Ain't Living Long
Like This" and "Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys". During
his travels he increasingly became compared to Waylon in both appearance and
vocal style.
Since Waylon’s untimely death in February 2002, Bob has focused exclusively
on keeping alive the music of his idol. Like Waylon, Bob sings with a style
that comes from the soul. When you listen to Bob, you feel the joy and the
pain at the heart of Waylon's songs, as if you were transported back to one
of the late, great performer’s concerts.
