| Welcome!!!! |
Welcome to the official web site of Southern California's own
Trop Rock singer, songwriter, and
author Bob Karwin. What is "Trop Rock?" It's
one party country music, one part beachside bonfire and a whole
bunch of good friends having a good time. Imagine Kenny
Chesney, Jimmy Buffett, Jack Johnson and the Eagles jamming after a
night of rum jumbies. Now you've got it. So come on in,
the virtual water is nice.......

News Notes
I just got back from Lake
Charles, Louisiana where I made a whole bunch of new southern
friends. I was in town to perform at a charity event called Angels
in Tropical Shirts. The event raised $6,500.00 for breast cancer
research. You can add to this number by going to their web site and
picking up a copy of the cd with original trop rock tunes from some of
the biggest names in the business as well as a few that you will need to
know. Follow this link: Angels

I
am so excited about this announcement.
Thanks
to Rock N' Roll Joe LaBella of Palm Breeze Travel and Tours, we
have just booked our first annual
"What's
My Name?" Carnival
Cruise. Yes, you read that right. This 3 day
excursion will feature my full
Sand
Dollar Millionaires band in special ship performances as
well as special guest solo acts who we can
convince
to join us. The cruise will depart Friday,
May 29, 2009 and return on
Monday, June 1, 2009. We picked this weekend because
it will give everyone a chance to cool down from Phins to the West
and heat up for Migration.
Here's
the best part, the cruise is a fundraiser for the Pediatric Cancer
Research Foundation (www.pcrf-kids.com)
We'll be doing raffles, silent auctions and anything else we can
think of to raise money for this very important foundation.
