R.X. Bertoldi

R.X. “Bob” Bertoldi is an award-winning singer-songwriter from Seattle, Washington. Bob’s acoustic guitar-driven steady grooves paired with well-crafted and reflective lyrics resonate with Roots and Americana listeners, and that holds true for his latest single, “Lay Your Money Down.” His newest release has garnered praise from pro critics and strong support from Spotify Playlist curators and Americana radio DJs.

Bob's song "Show Me a Sign" was a TOP 5 Winner in the Singer-Songwriter category in the 2023 Great American Song Contest (GASC). His song "Something Good" Won 1ST PLACE in 2019 in the Folk & Americana category in the GASC. His song “Black Coffee in the Mornin’” was a winner in the John Lennon Song Contest, and its lyrics won in the American Songwriter Magazine’s Lyric Contest. The tune was also heard a few times weekly on national radio at SiriusXM’s Coffeehouse for five years. Likewise, Bob’s tasteful cover of the Faces’ classic “Ooh La La” was spun weekly for four years on the same channel’s Covers program.

As the primary earner, husband, and father of two sons, significant family and work responsibilities (college educator) have restricted Bob’s time and energy for music. Nonetheless, he’s managed to release three studio albums of originals, one live album, one covers album, and several singles over the past two decades, with no signs of slowing down or stopping.
