Bob The
Bob-Tailed Cat
A Tale of a Tail
A true story · Steve Marcotte
Bob was a young, feral cat roaming two acres of rainforest on Hawaii's Big Island — until a freak lava accident changed everything. A song about humor, heart, and the resilience of one remarkable cat.

About Steve Marcotte
Steve Marcotte has always loved playing original music. Through the decades he played as a supporting musician for singer/songwriters, content to serve the song. Now, finally, he's releasing his own.
The music spans genres — folk, Americana, storytelling, and beyond — which is exactly why you won't find a traditional album here. Instead, Steve is releasing one song every month for 15 months. You might not love every style. But you just might love the next one.
Though the music is released under his name, Steve is quick to share the credit. Behind these recordings is a remarkable group of musicians — Nashville studio players with combined Grammy awards, and bandmates from the storied Palo Alto music scene of the 1960s and '70s.
None of it would have been possible without producer Donny Marrow of Disk Eyes Music. Steve and Donny played in their first band together when Steve was 16 and Donny was 15. Today, at 76 and 75, they're still making music together.
Steve has called Hawaii home since 1996, first on the Big Island and now in Honolulu.
