Something is Brewing.

About Me


Bob Knows Best was formed in a booth at the Covina, California Alberto's in the year 2003, but it wasn’t until 2005 that the band's musical career really began to take flight. The band’s original songs have earned them comparisons to Weird Al Yankovic, They Might Be Giants, Barenaked Ladies, Tenacious D, and Flight of the Conchords.
Bob Knows Best have paid their dues by performing at local venues all over Southern California, such as The Anarchy Library, The Stardust, The Gypsy Lounge, Hogue Barmichaels and Club Good Hurt. At every show they gain more and more fans with their theatrical style shows. This is possible with Singer/Kazooist Scott Carri and Rhythm Guitar/Vocalist Graham Scott Beightol leading the Sextet. Drummer Mark Adams and Bassist Jamis "Bass" Iovine form a tight rhythm section which allows new lead guitarist Ernesto Mora, formerly of the band "Four Fingered Mel", to work his magic across the fretboard. Adding the spice to the mix is percussionist Edmond Devore, who favors the cowbell and washboard.
The Mission of Bob Knows Best, or BKB for short, is to expose the bands listeners to a selection of songs to quench their diverse musical thirst and put a smile on their faces at the same time. BKB can take you to the funk of the 70's, the vaudevillian sounds of 1910, the country flavor of yesteryear and then back to the rock sounds of today, and their musical style selection grows with every new song, while keeping one goal simple, to make the audience have a good time.
The band is currently performing locally throughout the Southwestern United States at various venues and comedy clubs to spread the word that there’s a new sheriff in town that aims to tickle your funny bone.
Currently, BKB is on hiatus...but something big is brewing.....
