"'Rain Down On Me' is a plea for a period of writer's block to end. However, it's veiled in the metaphor of a farmer who's wishing for rain so that he can have a full harvest and make enough money to pay the bills. Since my favorite lyrics by other songwriters are those in which the real meaning isn't obvious, I often try - although not always successfully - to accomplish the same with my own." - Bobby Fingeroth

About Bobby Fingeroth
Bobby Fingeroth is a New York City based singer-songwriter who combines insightful lyrics with an array of traditionally non-rock instruments like violin, banjo, lap steel and mandolin to infuse his catchy classic rock-meets-roots rock music with a touch of bluegrass and even reggae. His emotionally flexible voice - which strongly recalls Ed Kowlcyzk of Live - and lyrically engaging songwriting draws from many successful musical influences such as Dave Matthews Band, Pearl Jam, Counting Crows and Blues Traveler. The inspirational rock groove of "Canaan," which received Honorable Mention in the 2001 John Lennon Songwriting Contest, addresses romantic disillusionment amid the belief that true and lasting love is still possible - a hopeful theme familiar to much of his writing. Bobby has performed his unique brand of edgy, contemplative rock for enthusiastic audiences at popular NYC venues like The Mercury Lounge, Fez, Arlene Grocery, The Knitting Factory, The Baggot Inn, CB's Gallery and Lion's Den. His latest release, the powerful Dilettante, is available for sale in the Wondermore Store today.
