Nacido en 1945, crece en Detroit. En 1966 empieza a grabar como Bob Seger & Last Heard, consiguiendo algunos éxitos locales y buenas críticas.
Edita su primer LP en 1969: "Ramblin' Gamblin' man", pero poco después abandona eventualmente la música para estudiar.
En 1971 ya está actuando de nuevo, pero no comienza a obtener resultados hasta que crea tras él a una formación fija: The Silver Bullet Band, con los que graba "Beautiful Loser" en 1975.
Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
