'm Bob Coltrain Kennedy from the small town of Dudley, North Carolina. Bobby to family and old friends. I am not good at bios because I hate to sound self absorbed. There are so many far more talented artists and writers, but people have been kind to me. I  grew up listening to traditional Country and Southern Gospel. Charlie Daniels, Marshall Tucker Band and Lynard Skynard were played on Rock stations during high school, so I was influenced by their styles as well. I started writing first, as songwriting was my goal. I only started singing my songs to give voice to them. My father was a part time preacher, but earned his living working, and I first sang in church. One night I sat up in a biker bar for tips. I sang my songs and others. To my surprise they gave a good amount of tip money and people seemed to enjoy it. That led to other bookings every time. I've played about every venue imaginable..many nightclubs and bars, private parties for rich and poor (no charge there, just supper and sweet tea), festivals, fairs, Prison, military base, Beach events, churches, Country Clubs, Weddings & Receptions, America Legions, VFWs, Tootsie's Orchid Lounge and other Nashville clubs, etc.  I was signed as a Nashille artist and songwriter with an indie label in the nineties (Killer Records/TNT Promitions). I've had 24 songs published, mainly recorded by regional bands all over the country. 

Tootsie's Orchid Lounge is a legendary nightspot here in Nashville, where just about every major artist has performed at least a time or two.  The intimate venue became the unofficial green room for the Opry stars when the Grand Ole Opry was just a few steps away at the historic Ryman Auditorium.  We headed out to the streets of Lower Broadway to celebrate 51 years of incredible music and memories.

Tootsie's Orchid Lounge rose to fame as the unofficial watering hole to the stars. Recently the famed establishment celebrated fifty years of business with a party like none other.
