10 MP3 Songs
COUNTRY: Traditional Country, COUNTRY: Country Rock
Details:
Texas vocalist Bob Dilley sings a tremendous song. His Style is smooth and easy to listen to both on cd as well in live performance.
Bob is no newcomer to the music scene. He has been performing the night club circuit throughout Texas for several years, always pleasing his audience with his unique brand of pure traditional country music.
Bob''s music touched the hearts of many listeners and brought about many requests at radio stations for his music. Four songs from this album reached some of the International Top 100 Charts.
Bob Dilley''s father was instrumental in setting his son on the road to stardom by giving him a guitar for his tenth birthday. Bob immediately fell in love with it and was soon performing for school functions. By age fifteen he was writing and singing many of his own, original songs. Bob''s parents loved country music, so he grew up with it and from early in life he was inspired by the story-telling ability of this style of music. After his discharge from the U.S. Navy, Bob headed straight for Nashville. During the next ten years, Bob performed in many of the local hot spots of Nashville and toured many parts of the country. He also made demo tapes for major recording studios, worked three years as a BMI writer for the Cedarwood Publishing Company and has fourteen songs in their catalog. From Nashville, Bob moved to Texas where he now resides with his lovely wife Carmen, and their two children, a son Robert and a daughter Kathy. Bob and his family now live in a small country town about sixty miles east of Dallas.
This tall, lean, good-looking gentleman, known to many as "Texas Bob" has been performing somewhere live on stage for most of his adult life. He has shared the stage with many of the "Greats" of country music. Opening for Mo Bandie, playing with Merle Haggard, Dale Reeves, Stonewall Jackson, and Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys just to name a few. Bob has performed on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry and made appearances in such places as the fames Palamino Club in California and in the Marriot Hotels across the country. A few years ago, Bob spent six months touring Switzerland and playing for audiences throughout the country. You can often find him performing in his own local Dallas and Fort Worth area, for this is a man who loves to share his talent and music with others.
While in high school Bob also studied acting. This led him to a short stay in Hollywood where he continued his acting studies in a number of acting schools. He spent two years at the Allied Stunt School, studying to be a stuntman for motion pictures. Falling off running horses and the like. This training led Bob to appearances in television shows and in some major motion pictures. A few of his credits include the television series "Dallas," "The New Jessie Owens Story," "Timebomb," and in "J.F.K." Bob was one of the stuntmen in the film and also played the character "Blackie."
In 1992, Bob set about the task of writing ten songs for a new album. The release of "I''d Like to Write Myself A Song", on the Latigo Record Label, is the result of the effort. This album has already brought him further recognition, as a writer and recording artist, from the United States, Canada and Australia. But, it is in Europe that the light seems to shine the brightest for him as the people there say they want to hear more from this man, with the soft, easy-going voice. Bob, would like to return to Europe for a tour and do some concerts among his new friends. Perhaps, this goal will come to pass in the not too distant future.
