Founder of the White Horse Black Mountain music hall in Black Mountain, Bob Hinkle is a longtime music industry figure whose experience reaches most every corner of the business, including working closely with The Band during the era that yielded their classic album Rock of Ages<\/i>.<\/p>\n

But that\u2019s merely one of many historically significant pieces of Hinkle\u2019s work in music. He got his start as a musician here in WNC, eventually forming a group; recording an album; going solo and releasing another<\/i> album; working for Dylan\u2019s notorious manager Albert Grossman; serving as head of A&R for a record label; becoming an artist manager himself, and managing several high-profile artists including Harry Chapin, Manfred Mann\u2019s Earth Band, The J. Geils Band and more. And even all that is only part of the story; Bob Hinkle went on to a VP position at a major label, overseeing one of its popular divisions.<\/p>\n

After he did all that, Bob Hinkle could have moved back to the mountains and taken a quiet retirement. Instead he did half of that \u2013 leaving New York City \u2013 and soon after settling in WNC, he opened White Horse Black Mountain, hosting some of the most compelling local, regional and nationally touring musical artists and developing a solid reputation as one of the Carolinas\u2019 best venues to play and hear music.<\/p>\n

Those who have met Bob or seen him onstage introducing shows at White Horse may know bits and pieces of his background. But this inaugural event in author and music journalist Bill Kopp\u2019s Local Legends discussion series presents an opportunity to hear much more about Hinkle\u2019s fascinating life in music, from Black Mountain to The Band to beyond and back again.<\/p>\n

Join host Bill Kopp at Freeburg Pianos<\/strong> in Hendersonville for an evening in discussion with Bob Hinkle about his life in music. We\u2019ll listen to key tracks that figure into his story, and invite questions from the audience.<\/p>\n
