The Story

 

Singer/songwriter Bobby Quick from Akron, Ohio is a raw and unapologetic rocker whose impulsive power pop anthems where love is lost and found, life is stumblingly explored and anything goes - all in just under three minutes of vintage garage rock that charms with its naive adolescence and honesty. 

 Hailing from Akron, Ohio, sometimes referred to as "little Liverpool" for having produced such talents as Joe Walsh, Devo, the Cramps, Chrissie Hynde, and the Black Keys, his recording tutelage began with another Akron product, Engineer/Limiter guru Jack Trowbridge. Bobby's band "Zero Parade" landed a deal with Chicago based "Acme Entertainment". The resulting debut album, "Zero Parade" was recorded in Nashville with three time Grammy winner Justin Niebank producing. His singles, "Lemonade" and “Farmers Daughter” became top 6 singles in the CMJ. Over extended financially and with the music industry imploding from digital conversion, Acme went under as the Zero Parade album was crossing to commercial radio. A journey began where the love of writing and recording only grew stronger.

 Bobby Quick and the Speeds of Sound is the result of this lifelong love affair. 2022's 4 song EP “I Learn The Hardway” for British label “Animal Farm Records” has been followed up with his current self produced 4 song EP, "It's Our Night"
