About the artist
Songs shaped by river towns and back roads.
Bob Running is a Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati-based solo artist blending gritty Americana with country roots, blues soul, and rock-and-roll grit.
Performing solo, Bob delivers road-worn songs grounded in honest storytelling, expressive guitar work, and the character of the Ohio River Valley. His music draws from outlaw country, heartland rock, and American blues while retaining an independent voice and a strong sense of place.
Bob's live show is suited to taverns, breweries, restaurants, listening rooms, songwriter showcases, festivals, community events, and private gatherings.
