About Bobby Bones
Bobby Bones, the host of
iHeartMedia's The Bobby Bones Show, who was heralded by
New York Times as "the
biggest thing in country radio," has proven to be one of the
genre's most influential tastemakers, breaking some of country
music's freshest talent on his nationally syndicated radio show. He
recently released THE RAGING KIDIOTS: KIDDY UP! on Black River
Entertainment, which debuted as the top downloaded children's
album, with Sounds Like Nashville declaring that the
release, co-written by Bobby Bones,
showcases his ability to "fill lyrics with important lessons and a
catchy tune." Bobby Bones' memoir,
BARES BONES: I'M NOT LONELY IF YOU'RE READING THIS BOOK (Dey Street
Books), released earlier this year, spent four weeks on New York
Times Bestsellers List following an overwhelming debut that saw the
memoir claim the No. One spot on multiple lists including
USA Today and Wall Street
Journal.
