When you listen to Bob Cheevers, you'll be hearing a singer-songwriter at top of his game. "Bob came to Texas, looked around and began to write about the things he saw. His observations about Texas made me wanna go there...and I’m from Texas. Not only is “Tall Texas Tales” a wonderful travelogue of my great state, it is full of songs that could only be written by a man whose life is rich with experience and deep insight. Bob Cheeevers is an American classic...make no mistake about it! (producer- Stephen Doster) |

Toward the end of my '06 UK summer tour, I was playing in Southampton and noticed a lovely woman sketching me during the show. Afterward, I was introduced to the artist who presented me with the sketch (which appears in the moon on the CD cover). Thus began a mystical journey and symbiotic relationship that inspired forty poems and sixteen songs in a few months time. From this body of work came Fiona's World, my latest CD of Delta-Celtic music which, when "translated", means "Celtic tunes dipped in Mississippi Delta mud."A slight departure from the sound that has turned so many into "Cheevers believers," it maintains the same heart and soul of previous critically acclaimed releases. Believers will not be disappointed! |

" My first CD was Gettysburg To Graceland featuring characters who lived along the Mississippi Delta. This collection of songs has more of the same in addition to some songs with characters from the old West. What we have here is a musical road paved with tales about people, places and things from Texas To Tennessee. And as I’ve said before...I don’t know if these stories are true, but they happened to me." |

" Singer/songwriter...guitar/vocal...solo/acoustic...one man/one Martin. This collection of songs is the first recording I've done with just voice and instrument. My "We Are All Naked" CD began like that, but I got carried away by the sounds in my head of other vocal and instrumental parts. On that CD, it was right to add those parts. On this one, its right to leave them off. These are more stories written about the naked truth delivered by one man playing his old, black Martin guitar. " |
