Bobby Sweet has written songs that have aired on several hit television series, such as Touched By An Angel, Walker Texas Ranger, Soul Food, and Judging Amy, among others. He also co-wrote a song that was featured in the Danny Devito/Bette Midler movie Drowning Mona. As a performer he has shared the bill with some of the top country and folk artists, including Vince Gill, Bill Morrissey, Deana Carter, Bill Staines, Bryan White, Arlo Guthrie, and Jess Klein. As a sought-after lead guitarist he has played shows with George Jones, Asleep at the Wheel, Willie Nelson, The Bellamy Brothers, Waylon Jennings, and many others. Sweet has also been featured as a multi-instrumentalist on albums by recording artists Arlo Guthrie, Bernice Lewis, Adam Michael Rothberg, Sarah Lee Guthrie, Johnny Irion, and a host of other projects.

"For the better part of the last decade, Adam Michael Rothberg has dominated the regional music scene as a producer (Dar Williams, Bernice Lewis, Jamie Morton, Pete Nelson), band member (Big Waaagh Scratch Band, Dr. Isosceles), recording engineer (Derek Studios in Dalton), publicist (Iron Horse Music Hall), manager (Dar Williams), instrumentalist (Joan Baez, Cliff Eberhardt, Sugarbeat, Sloan Wainwright, Victoria Williams, Mark Olson) and performer. In other words, Rothberg, a Pittsfield native and multi-talented multi-instrumentalist, has been everything to everyone, but as the above and only partial listing shows, always in the service of others." -- Seth Rogovoy
