Bobby Bones is an American musician and actor based in Los Angeles. He first emerged onto the music scene in the early 1980s with punk rock band The Mau-Mau's[1] and after 1985 was with Demolition Gore Galore.

After a 10-year break, he returned with another punk rock band the Flesh Eaters.[2][3] Bobby then went on to be in garage rock band The Morlocks,[4] and psychedelic rock band Spindrift.[5][6]

His acting debut was a role in the 2008, American independently produced film The Legend of God's Gun in which he played a gun-slinging preacher returning to the debaucherous town of Playa Diablo seeking revenge from the notorious scorpion-venom drinking bandito El Sobero.[7]

Bobby is a member of The Silver Chords[8] and also of Sky Parade who will be embarking on a west coast tour later in the year with Mark Gardener from Ride.[9]
