Bob Forrest showcases brand new album 'Survival Songs'

Who is Bob Forrest? According to actor and musician Johnny Depp, he’s “the coolest guy in the fucking world.”

Former lead singer of LA post-punk outfit Thelonious Monster, and later The Bicycle Thief, the infamous rehabilitated drug addict turned celebrity drug counsellor Bob Forrest will finally release his first, official solo album this autumn.

Recorded in the great outdoors with the backdrop of Big Sur and a sparse acoustic accompaniment, Bob’s gritty, heart-wrenching vocals speak a hundred truths as he delves into his troubled past.

Produced by Grammy-winning Ian Brennan, ‘Survival Songs’ brings together new work musing on meditation and redemption alongside older, unavailable material from Bob’s past.
