About Bobby Stewart
Bobby Stewart began his performing and recording career playing with various groups around the New York City area. One of his bands - Bobby Stewart and The (expired link) - developed a cult following playing at such legendary clubs as CBGB and Max’s Kansas City. When The (expired link) disbanded Stewart recorded the original version of “Copyright On Love” for (expired link) Records. Having regional success with “Copyright” Stewart signed with Warner Bros. Records who released a new version which charted nationally. Other successful recordings include "Bottom Of The Drum" and "Dark Side Of Love" (on (expired link) Records).
Some of the great musicians Stewart has worked with on various projects include The Roches, Chris Botti, and members of The Psychedelic Furs and Buzzcocks, amongst others.
Stewart was also one of the original participants in the "Loser's Lounge" - a highly acclaimed series of songwriter tributes that continues to be performed in venues around New York City - and in 2001 Stewart was invited by the Woody Guthrie Foundation to create music for, and perform in concert, previously unrecorded lyrics written by Woody Guthrie.
In 2003 he released Volume One of “Live In New Amsterdam” on Plan B Music.
In 2005, Stewart and his band, The Contraires, contributed a track entitled “Happy Holiday” to the “Holiday Heart” benefit CD. The CD also included tracks by Ron Sexsmith, Rick Derringer and Prof. Louie & The Crowmatix amongst others.
In 2008 Stewart took on the role of Executive Producer for “The Common Thread” by The Keith Reid Project (Rockville Records). The CD is a collection of songs that Keith had written outside of his work with Procol Harum (“A Whiter Shade Of Pale”). The CD features vocal performances by artists such as John Waite, Southside Johnny and Terry Reid amongst others.
Stewart's latest release is an anthology album entitled "Before Now" and is available at Amazon, iTunes and CD Baby.
