“One of the best bands I’ve seen in ages, and I can tell that these guys do it from the heart and not for the limelight.”

Satori Bob Bio

Satori Bob lives at the corner of Indie and Americana. 

Guitarist/vocalist John Baumann leads a constantly shifting lineup of amazing musicians, reinventing his original music (and some obscure covers here and there) through many years of performing. Satori Bob serves the Song, responding together to the musical moment at hand.  With John as the center, Satori Bob is able to bring strong musical energy in any context.  From solo to sextet, no two performances are the same, yet they all remain intriguing.
