Bob Cockburn
Singer/Songwriter based in Oxford UK. Voice & acoustic guitar. Some people say I sound like Leonard Cohen.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Every album I've made I've played with different people helping give a different sound.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes. It's probably easier than playing dead.
Your musical influences
The singer songwriters. Leonard Cohen, Randy Newman, Paul Simon, Lou Reed, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen
What equipment do you use?
Acoustic guitar. People playing with me have used all kinds of technical stuff.
Anything else?
I also make up songs on the spur of the moment, either streams of consciousness or weaving in suggestions from the audience.
