DESCRIPTION:
Steady Rollinʼ Bob Margolin is a Blues guitar player and vocalist, carrying on the deep Chicago Blues style and creating his original music today. From 1973-1980, Bob played guitar in the band of Chicago Blues legend Muddy Waters, touring worldwide and recording, and learning to play Muddy's powerful music directly from him. During that time, Bob recorded five records with Muddy, played alongside him in Martin Scorceseʼs landmark film "The Last Waltz", and played on Johnny Winterʼs "Nothin But The Blues." Four of those records picked up Grammy Awards.

In 2013, Bob was nominated for The Blues Foundation's Blues Music Award for Traditional Male Blues Artist. He has won Blues Music Awards for guitar in 2008 and 2005.

"On the bandstand, I play what feels right at the moment, whether it's featuring my original songs, telling stories, joking and talking with he audience, or just playing for the dancers. I like to be "professional" in terms of responsibility and competence, but past that, I am a musician playing for my friends."—Bob Margolin
