Living in a world of mystique, Bob Ricci was rarely one to give interviews. Writing the songs that defined a generation of classic rock fans, though, answered more questions than any interview could. After penning the song "Stairway to Hea... ...Yikes, I'm sorry. I'm the manager for a multitude of artists and sometimes I get them mixed up. Is it alright if I start over? Bob's paying me a ton of money to write this and I don't want to get the wrong information out!
Background
Bob Ricci is a musical artist, with a knack for comedy, who has been performing parodies and writing creatively original music since his early teens. Bob has built a diverse and powerful fan base over the years through his exciting and funny live performances as well as his “ingenious and hilarious” lyrical compositions; all the while focusing on a dedication to the integrity of the artists' and his own music.
Bob has recorded, promoted, and sold two record albums and is currently working on his hotly anticipated third album, with requests for more national and international CD sales and new music received daily. He and his new manager, John Marshe, are currently in negotiations with several record labels for this third artistic endeavor. Bob has a global estimated fan base of over 250,000 based upon CD sales and internet traffic. His website alone, www.bobricci.com, pulls in upwards of 350,000 hits per DAY at its peak, and his increasing CD sales (well over 3,000 since November 2004) have put Bob Ricci in the eyes of venues and fans across the nation.
Howard Stern has discussed Bob Ricci's promising outlook with his radio fans, and Jon Bermuda Schwartz, drummer for Weird Al Yankovic (the most prominent face in parody/comedy music) has said, “Excellent work on those songs… it's well played and well recorded, sounds like something Al would have recorded.” Bob's own musical creations headlined for Alcon in Chicago as he performed to over 500 fans, and he can next be seen performing for more than 5000 people at the annual Brimstock festival (www.brimstock.com), where he was pre-selected from over 600 applying bands.
2005 started off with a bang for Bob Ricci when his song “She Blocked Me”, a parody of “She Hates Me” by Puddle of Mudd, was turned into a flash animation by "Samb", a dedicated German fan. This garnered international attention, attracting radio stations in countries such as Norway , Netherlands , Scotland , England , Sweden , Canada , Russia , and others. Of course, being an American artist Bob has been aired on stations all over the United States as well. This kind of popularity has not been a fluke as his fans scream for more live performances and have allowed Bob to play increasingly more outside of New England venues. |
