Filmed at the Winter Blues Weekender at The Exchange 1856 in North Shields, Colin Campbell speaks with Bad Bob Bates just before he heads on stage.
Bad Bob talks about his unique one man band setup, combining archtop guitar, slide cigar box guitars, and foot-played drums to create a full, driving sound. He reflects on wanting to be a drummer as a child, how rhythm has always been central to his playing, and why juggling multiple instruments feels natural rather than difficult.
The conversation explores his early musical influences, growing up with the radio always on, discovering rock and blues through records and secondhand sounds, and how that journey led him into the blues. For Bad Bob, blues is not down music but something joyful and uplifting, about making noise and connecting with people.
He also talks about playing on home turf, the pressures of small rooms versus larger stages, and how once the music starts, everything else disappears.
