Bob Polding Band
With a soulful sound and meaningful lyrics the band has created their own unique blend of Acoustic/Electric/County Rock, which can be dubbed as "Americana." Never straying far from their roots, the band credits each member for bringing a part of themselves into every song. Being from New Jersey, the band's sound is influenced by many of the great acts that hail from the Garden State.
One of the band's songs, "Forever Free", written for the men and women who have given their lives for our freedom, is currently being broadcasted to our troops overseas via Armed Forces Radio Network with heavy rotation.
The band has been enjoying local success and has opened for some of Rock's legendary performers such as Leslie West, Nils Lofgren, Southside Johnny. Pat Green, Peter Frampton and more. Bob has also performed with Toby Keith and will continue to in the not so distant future.
The band always plays with the same level of intensity whether performing at intimate local clubs like The Stone Pony, The Saint, The Wonder Bar and The Starland Ballroom, or larger venues such as The Sands Casino, The Paramount Theater. The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino (Las Vegas) and GIANTS Stadium twice with Bob singing the National Anthem as well as the whole band performing during halftime.
The band recently had the opportunity to perform in Texas for 15,000 people, and to open for country music artist Pat Green, the bands is attracting a new fan base, where Rock meets Country...
Their energetic live performances have help to attract new fans one show at a time.
