Bob is joined by retro blues country artist Pete Molinari, who performs songs from his album A Virtual Landslide.
Bob is joined by retro blues country artist Pete Molinari, from Chatham in Kent. Born into a large Maltese-Italian-Egyptian family Pete spent his childhood listening to his older brothers' records, and developed an obsession with the music of Billie Holliday, Leadbelly, Hank Williams, Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan.
Inspired by Woody Guthrie and Jack Kerouac, Pete travelled to New York, intending to stay for a month. Two years later he was still gigging his way around the USA and building up a cult following on the alternative folk circuit.
On his return to the UK he recorded his first album on an old Revox recorder in his friend's kitchen. It took them a day. His second studio album A Virtual Landslide was released in 2008, a year which also saw him touring Europe as a solo artist and supporting Richard Hawley. He is currently recording his third album.
