Welcome to Bob Sachs Music!
Here you’ll find information about all my musical endeavors. Hopefully I’ll get to see you out at a live performance. Just check my calendar or send me an email.
Pemi is a great festival and we always loved it. I particularly remember this one because the airline had lost my bag and I had to drive a good ways south to buy clothes (courtesy of the airline). Made it back with only about 10 minutes to spare!!!
I perform several genres of music and play a number of different instruments… Mandolin, Guitar, Fiddle and a few others you may not know.
In addition to events on the calendar at right I make regular appearances at local Song Writer events. I also manage to “raid” gigs of many friends on short notice. I also do a fair number of private gigs that are not listed here.
The Road Warriors was my first band in Colorado back in the '80s. I played Mandolin, Stave Haas on Guitar, John Ramsey on Banjo and Allen Swedlund on bass. Note that John Ramsey built the mandolin I'm playing here. Still my favorite!
On occasion I enjoy jumping from side man to front man, playing guitar and singing. I’ve been working on that lately and have had a pretty good time in the process. This is also forcing me to hone my guitar chops since I am usually in a duo or solo when I’m on guitar. Thanks to my great pal Marci Shore for hanging by me on the fiddle to make this easier!!
Can’t let the Mandolin get too far from me though since it’s like a part of me. I love playing gigs on Mandolin and even get lots of chances to “raid” friends gig and sit in on Mandolin. Don’t think I’ll ever be able to give that up long as I can still play!
