Drawing from his vast repertoire of rousing R&B, intimate smooth jazz stylings, and big band songs, Bobby is afforded the ability to entertain at any venue, for fans of all ages. In Japan and throughout Asia, he enjoys a feverish popularity, selling out shows and achieving gold and platinum status for his releases in those countries. In addition to heavy touring, Bobby starred as Frank Sinatra in the David Cassidy/Don Reo theatrical production "The Rat Pack Is Back" in Las Vegas, Nevada. Bobby received rave reviews for his performance, both from industry critics and from his loyal fans. Major motion picture and television credits have brought Bobby's music to even broader audiences. His original composition, "The Girl I Dream About" was included in Hillary Duff's film, "The Perfect Man", and in Charlie Matthau’s film, “Her Minor Thing” and in “Simone”, starring Al Pacino. Previously, his rendition of "Beyond The Sea" was selected by actor/director Joe Mantegna as the opening theme for his directorial debut "Lakeboat." The song fit so well with the movie that Mantegna commissioned Bobby to compose an original piece, "(Oh Boy!) You've Got It Made," as the closing theme. "Beyond The Sea," along with "All The Way" and "The Girl I Dream About" are also featured in the motion picture "My First Mister" starring Albert Brooks and directed by Christine Lahti. "I've Got The World On A String" was used in "Hearts In Atlantis" starring Anthony Hopkins. "Luck Be A Lady" is the featured track in the movie "The Cooler," starring William H. Macy, Alec Baldwin, and Paul Sorvino. In January 2007 listen for Bobby’s song, “Donna,” in “The Amateurs” starring Jeff Bridges. In light of this success, Bobby's has released two greatest hits collections. The first is entitled Timeline, featuring Bobby's original recordings of his own best known work. The second is entitled Time & Again, which encompasses Bobby's hits that were made popular by other artists, as well as two brand new songs. Both have gone onto become best selling titles in his discography, not only pleasing his longtime fans, but exposing a new generation of listeners to his time-tested sound. Born in Manhattan and raised in Memphis and Miami, Bobby came from a show business family. His mother and father both sang and were the hosts of one of the first musical variety programs on television, "Suppertime." Bobby grew up listening to show tunes, the music of Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, as well as songs that featured the arrangements of Billy May, Don Costa, and Nelson Riddle. These early influences are prevalent in Bobby's singing and songwriting. With a fan base that dates from his first hits "What You Won't Do For Love," "Next Time I Fall," and "Heart Of Mine," Bobby appeals to a large and diverse crowd. R&B fans of his earlier "blue-eyed soul" chart toppers, youngsters who listen to urban contemporary, and older fans of the classic song stylists are in agreement that whatever Bobby Caldwell sings, be it thoroughly heart-rending, brimming with swaggering confidence, or potently sensual, his superb vocal mastery solidifies his position of pre-eminence amongst his contemporaries.
