Bob Jahrig has been involved in the Alberta music scene for a number of years. His debut CD, Tree Tops, was released in 2002 and produced by local musician/producer Shannon Johnson. In addition to performing at folk venues across Alberta, Bob teaches songwriting to youths as an artist in residence in elementary schools and as an instructor at YouthWrite.
Bob's songwriting reveals his love of language, melody and a search for beauty in the human spirit and the natural world. His unique guitar style and unforgettable voice complement a poetic lyricism. His inspiration comes from family, his hobby as an amateur astronomer and the wilderness he experienced growing up in northern Ontario, Alaska and Alberta.
