Bob LaMendola, bass

Bob's musical career sprouted from an odd version of 1960s suburban childhood. Boy hears Beatles, boy buys guitar, boy can't play too well. Years later, boy tries bass, boy discovers his calling. Bob has thumped out rock, blues and jazz in his hometown of Rochester, NY, then Maryland and now Fort Lauderdale. He and Mike hooked up in 1996 for a jazz project called the Jazz Survivors. When Blues Therapy had an opening for a bassist, Johnnie brought in Bob to kick out the low notes that hold up the soloists.
