“His confidence in performance tells the tale of a man that has no need to prove himself, whatyou see is what you get, and with no airs and graces, he does exactly that, right in front ofyour eyes from centre stage. Bob hones his style to one of his own creation, giving us a uniquetwist on “Alternative Country”, where he speaks of not only the heart and soul, but real lifesituations, experiences and observations giving us a first-hand view into the lifeof a true professional.” - Ian Davies

NEW EP "tWENTY oNE"
“Twenty One” – the new EP by Bob Spring
Raw, reflective, and unafraid to dive deep, Twenty One is a journey through doubt, desire, and the relentless search for meaning. Across five lyrically-rich tracks, this EP explores the chaos of self-doubt (21 Hearts), the irony of existence (Ain’t Life Grand?), and the quiet fight to stay afloat (How Would I Try). With poetic honesty and a gritty sense of melody, it balances vulnerability with rebellion --- drawing a line from late-night thoughts to cosmic questions. It’s not just music. It’s a confession, a shout into the void, and a quiet moment before the storm.
“How would I try” (Single)
“How would I try” (Single)
This song is for anyone who’s ever felt like they’re running in circles, chasing something just out of reach. It’s about the struggle, the chaos, and the desperate need to keep pushing forward, even when everything feels like it’s falling apart. With driving melodies, raw emotions, and lyrics that cut deep, this track means a lot to me, and I hope it resonates with you too.
“21 Hearts” (Single)
Out now, "21 Hearts" explores the raw and vulnerable moments when fear, doubt, and procrastination cloud our minds. With reflective lyrics that balance uncertainty and yearning for connection, this track blends introspection with a hint of rebellious spirit. From questioning decisions to chasing a sense of freedom, it’s a journey through self-doubt and the search for clarity.

PRESS RELEASE
Bob Spring is a rapidly emerging singer and songwriter who specializes in alternative country music. His latest release is a long-awaited treat for country music fans of all ages. Championing themes of diversity and passion, his 5th solo album proves his authenticity as an underrated example of generational talent. With »I woke up like this«, Bob Spring, one of our greatest poets, speaks out on his fifth solo album. Lines like: "It's not a bad life it's just a bad day" or "In my dreams I look at myself and I can see the fire in my eyes" get in your bones. I could fill this whole page with his strong lyrics. But it's better to grab your album and the book with the lyrics to it and retreat to a quiet corner somewhere - what more does a person need?
His lyric is what I have come to appreciate as American storytelling from authors such as Hemingway, Faulkner, Kerouac, and Salinger. This somehow dry style that doesn't sugarcoat anything, romanticizes nothing and with this certain serenity makes a lot of things resonate. Damn, that Bob Spring is good. I run his new shard »I woke up like this« and it sucks me in. It's just like I said to a colleague the other day: once you've heard Bob, seen it live, you' re kind of addicted to it. The guy is like a drug that once you've had it you want it again.
Bob Spring's songwriting is also outstanding - every note is exactly where it needs to be. Mandatory somehow. His unique voice sounds very lively and close-up on his new album, simply stunningly strong. He doesn't need to put on a show: Bob has a touchy, full, male voice with edges, and he knows what to do with it.
