Bob Frey is a singer-songwriter who has lived and performed in the Twin Cities since 1993. Bob honed his craft in the bars and coffeehouses of his hometown Cleveland, Ohio, as well as in Oxford, Ohio and Chicago. A longtime devotee to the art of writing and performing songs, Frey's songs have a strong melodic base which, coupled with his unique and memorable voice, immediately draws and engages his audience and proves to be the perfect vehicle for his wry, intelligent lyrics.
Bob has released four solo records- "Tape From Minnesota" (2004), "Like A Train" (2007), "Nothing Hid" (2013) and his most recent "LongShot Deal" (2017). His fifth record- "Ghost"- is scheduled for a Fall 2021 release. On each of these albums, Bob shows himself to be a versatile writer, his simple folk melodies forming a sound and solid base for his poetic observations and stories. Both in his shows and on his records, Bob frequently appears as a solo performer with just his guitar and harmonica, though often also offers a fuller version of his songs featuring some combination of bass, drums, violin, cello, organ and lead guitar.
Bob Frey is a performer who is comfortable in any venue, from coffeeshops to bars to larger halls. Whether live or on record, his laid-back demeanor, entertaining stories and, most of all, well-crafted, beautifully performed songs always leave his listeners hoping for more...
Bob is also the older brother of acclaimed author James Frey ("A Million Little Pieces", "My Friend Leonard", "Bright Shiny Morning" and his most recent novel "Katerina")
