Bio:

Singer/songwriter/producer Bob Sachnoff (“Papa Satch”) started his music career as a founding member of Long Island Indie bands Black Horizon, Blank Stare, and Mercy Hit. He was also an integral member of the seminal rock band Spoof. As producer, he wrote, sang on and organized the critically acclaimed Actress, Doggin’ It album. In recent years, he has toured many of the top clubs in the NYC Metro area, and has been interviewed on radio stations.

Bob started his musical journey at an early age. Immersed in the great music of the sixties and seventies, he was impressed by legends such as Smokey Robinson, the Beatles, Neil Young and others. He started playing guitar at fourteen, and from then on, developed his career as a band member, playing charity events, school “Battles of the Bands” and parties during his high school years, with his band Black Horizon, and then joining the seminal band Spoof. After high school, Bob wrote, produced and performed on the critically acclaimed album, Actress, Doggin It.

As always, his passion for songwriting has been his motivating force. In the last few years, Bob has played in numerous bands, including Ooloo, Blank Stare and Mercy Hit. He has produced two self-released albums, No Fall Down and Open Dreams, and won the Golden Viking Award for Best Acoustic Rock Artist in 2007. From the early days, Rob’s music has had common threads: the love of a good tune; the belief and inspiration that good songs make life fuller and more enjoyable. With So Far ‘til Now, Bob believes he has contributed to that cause: some great-sounding tunes that everyone can relate to.

 

Steve Ronsen is a versatile singer, songwriter and musician with a unique brand of guitar-driven pop/rock. He is also an award-winning musical director and a member of the well-known band Quikdraw. Steve produces his own and other musicians’ songs. This musician can do it all – guitarist, bass player, drummer, and vocalist – and is a top-tier performer.

 

Background Notes:

In 2016, the sudden death of Bob’s father served as a catalyst for a whole new bevy of music. Bob contacted Steve to talk about producing a new album around this surge of emotional creativity. So Far ‘til Now is that album. With the opening song and lead single Shallow Water the listener is introduced to Bob’s new music, a taste of rock with a tinge of country twang. Nine more songs follow, including Run for Cover and Time.
