Storyteller Bob Bradshaw crafts compelling characters and brings them to his audiences with intimacy and conviction. One moment he’s an impulsive daredevil, the next, a sea-weary pirate, or next simply one of us, an ordinary soul searching for meaning, hope, and redemption. With
The Ghost Light, every track inhabits a different little world.
Bradshaw comes by his style honestly. As a young journalist in his native Cork, Ireland, Bradshaw wrote a mix of news and short stories, learning to write with a vivid eye for detail. Years later, after landing in San Francisco, as a musician, his band Resident Aliens was offered studio time, and they needed some original material to record.
