Bob Ma is an American fingerstyle guitar performer and recording artist. Born in Alberta, Canada, in 2000, he is currently based in Portland, Oregon. Bob is studying guitar performance with a focus on jazz at the Berklee College of Music.
He has released several singles on streaming platforms, as well as three albums. His latest, Echo Reverie, features twelve original songs written and performed by Bob on solo acoustic guitar. This album is also the only one for which physical copies are available.
Bob began playing guitar at the age of nine but didn’t start exploring fingerstyle until he was sixteen. His initial inspiration came from Tommy Emmanuel, with whom he later shared the stage at one of his guitar camps. Today, Bob draws influence from jazz, as well as funk and R&B music from the 70s and 80s, developing his own unique approach to arrangements with a focus on the fine details in each song.
With live performance experience across seven countries and three continents, Bob connects with audiences through his emotionally charged music, wit, and humor.
Passionate about teaching, Bob helps students arrange and perform fingerstyle music. He believes that education in this genre is often too "abstract and unclear," and through his teaching, he has reached students in over twenty countries, contributing to the growth of the fingerstyle music community he loves.
