About Bobby Bare Jr.

Robert Joseph Bare Jr. (born June 28, 1966) is an American singer-songwriter and musician. The title of the record was inspired by a January 2008 storm in Nashville that injured his mother. "Mom was sitting on the couch, the last day of January in 2008, and there was a big, windy storm outside. In the 1990s, he led the roots rock outfit Bare Jr., which was signed to Immortal Records, at that time the home of Korn and Incubus.
