Bob Hawn
|
Bob joined Legally Blue in March of 2017, and for reasons unknown, has not yet been thrown out. His playing has been compared to an alley cat in heat, but, hey, with a Leslie 122, anything sounds good. Although he started out on organ at the ripe old age of 12, it was more Johnny Bach than Jimmy Smith. He switched to piano in college because the UC Berkeley Co-op he lived at didn't have the foresight to install a pipe organ. He has studied with, among others, Martan Mann, Murray Low, and Brain Ho, and even took a master class with Dave Brubeck. Unfortunately, none of this has done any good. Bob continually approaches each Legally Blue gig with the expectation that, maybe just once, he'll actually get through a blues progression without screwing it up.
