Bob Allison - Casablanca Piano

• Robert Allison - Piano & Vocals

With repertoire ranging from Scott Joplin to Jimmy Buffett, Bob Allison is one of the region's leading singing piano players. Bob's style combines the sophisticated swing of Rodgers and Hart, Duke Ellington, and Cole Porter with the rock-ability to cover Elvis Presley and Jerry Lee Lewis. Since 1999 Bob has been House Musician at the Emerson Inn in Rockport, MA where he can be heard weekends throughout the year. He also leads the Lighthouse Trio, a group which highlights the great songs of the 30s, 40s, and 50s.

• Bob was awsome! Even with an impending snow storm, he still arrived early and starting playing right away. He only took 2 very short breaks and played all the way to the end. Most of the songs he played he did not use music, and of course he sang too! We will definitely hire him again for future events! Happy Holidays. -- James E, Halifax, MA, 12/19/2009
• Bob was terrific! He played exactly what the audience enjoyed (and what we had discussed beforehand.) He was prompt, professional, easy to work with and super accomodating. I would recommend him highly to anyone. Also, value for the dollar was first rate! -- Larry B, Medford, MA, 4/5/2009
