About Bob…
Bob Cunningham’s proficiency, mastery and knowledge of the bass is the direct result of his training and longstanding relationships with Jazz masters like Dizzy Gillespie, Yusef Lateef, and Freddie Hubbard. On tour or recording Bob has experienced opportunities that many musicians dream of…he practices every day at his home studio.
Originally from Cleveland, Ohio, Bob began his love affair with the Bass at the age of twelve, private lessons with master instructors Jaques Possell and June Cobb of Ohio, and in New York with Art Davis and Homer Mench, honed his technique. Attending The Cleveland Music Institute and Julliard School of Music, polished Bob’s natural talent and ability… by the age of seventeen he would be a highly recognized professional musician …and the rest is history.

Hi Bobby "C" I've been your friend for many years, now and when I want to smile and feel good I think of the moment while working with your group at El C's (NJ) during intermission you brought me over and introduced me to my idol "Little Jimmy Scott". Jimmy was very approachable. He gave me good advice and a wonderful compliment about my voice. What an HONOR!!!! Thank you for your add and please keep it going with the blessings from your creator. With love and peace to you and the family as always. Kym
