Bobby West & The Outsiders

On first listen to Bobby West & The Outsiders, you'd be forgiven for presuming he originates from the Deep South of America. With his sultry liquid gold guitar tones and a Tennessee tobacco tinged gravelly vocal, it's intriguing to learn that Bobby was born & raised on the housing estates of Anfield, Liverpool.

A city that is fiercely proud of its musical exports, Bobby has cultured a reputation as one of the finest songwriters and performers in town with his ethereal blend of Blues, Country, Americana and Rock N Roll. A gritty realism and defiant resilience is present throughout - with sharp lyrics and a classic story teller vibe.

An old fashioned romantic at heart, Bobby's writing explores themes of love, loss, heartache and the pursuit of happiness. The sort of songs that will compel the listener to stare off into the middle distance and conjure up deep forgotten memories. Introspective and deeply emotional tracks - Bobby West is one of those rare artists that stop you in your tracks and take the mind to those unexplored corners of the sub-conscious.
