about
*Guitar World Says...."AIN'T TOO PROUD TO SHRED, Boykin is a ferocious soloist who segues from bop-style jazz phrases to wailing rock licks with the greatest of ease.**** *Jazz Times Says...."An established composer of television and film scores, guitarist Bob Boykin clearly has a need to rock". *Vintage Guitar Says..."From 70s-style funk, to blues, to killer ballad work, and pretty much any jazz style you can think of, Boykin's playing shines" Bob began his career at age 16 as a musician performing in the clubs of his home town Savannah Georgia. By age 20 he moved to Nashville, where he began working as a studio guitarist with many of the top Country, Rock, Blues and R&B Artist, including playing on the Grand Ole Opry. While continuing to do session work playing guitar, he still managed to play with his own group in the local Nashville club scene. Bob later moved to Los Angeles in the mid 80s, where his versatility soon landed him in the studio playing on sessions for Movies, Television and Records. During that time he got his first prime time weekly series on ABC as the weekly composer, producer and guitarist.
