Bobby Black, an internationally acclaimed vocalist, makes his way around the world sharing his talents and charm to millions. From his humble, small hometown of Donalsonville, Georgia to the mighty outback of Australia and across 4 continents, Bobby Black celebrates a lifetime of passion and pride with his one true love, music.  

At the early age of three, Bobby consumed himself with music by singing solos at his local church and continued to fill his life with every musical opportunity he could find. He taught himself how to play the trombone and joined the high school marching and concert bands. He sang in choirs, quartets and musical productions all through his teenage years, but always stayed close to his Christian roots. “I know my talents are God given gifts, he says, and my Faith and deeply rooted Southern Gospel principles have always been the foundation for my personal and professional choices.”  

The Zion Brothers, a national touring Southern Gospel Quartet, hired Bobby to be their lead soloist and for 5 years, his powerful range and natural ability to hear harmonies made the perfect match for this successful group. “My time with The Zion Brothers really taught me how to find the strength in my voice and pushed my vocal range,” says Mr. Black, “but my fondest memories are the special bonds we created being on the road together.”  

It wasn’t until he completed his study of music at Troy State University that Bobby realized his highest aspirations could only be achieved by a solo career. After Troy State, Bobby followed this dream and sang solo performances at Paramount’s King’s Island Theme Park and the world renowned, Opryland USA Theme Park. However, he knew his full potential would not be reached unless someone gave him the chance to sing in a world-class production. Tim Molyneux and Molyneux Musick, LLC gave Bobby that chance.

In April 2000, Bobby was hired to be the lead pop soloist for the grand theatrical productions onboard the Celebrity Cruises, GTS Millennium. The Millennium was the first ship to brag of such a state-of-the-art theatrical facility; 1000 seat auditorium with three tiered seating, Broadway scale fly space, multiple hydraulic lift stages and a cast of some of the world’s greatest singers and dancers showcased Bobby Black as a star.      

 “Tim saw the potential in me and was willing to work with me to bring out my fullest potential. He pushed me beyond my comfort zones and forced me to bring the message to the audience like never before.” Mr. Black was so successful at the production shows, that the cruise line asked him to perform his own one man show. Standing ovations every night and extremely high passenger ratings, now three years later, his one man show can be seen all over the world on a variety of ships including Celebrity Cruises and Holland America.  

Bobby chose Las Vegas to be his home base in 2002. Here he develops his business deals and relationships and is able to call it home even though he is booked more than 240 dates a year. “Ultimately I want to settle down and perform every night at the Bobby Black theater right here in Vegas. I know that might take a few years to achieve, but I am certainly having fun along the way. Until then I will continue to cherish my friends all over the world and thank God for his wonderful gift of music.”   

 
     
 
 
     
 

Mark Giovi was born and raised in Trenton, New Jersey.  I started singing as early as I can remember.  When I was 7 years old, I started to sing with my father’s band. It was only one song, but I was in front of people. Mark went on to sing for the high school choir. I also started singing rock and heavy metal music.

Mark started my own band locally. We played at the battle of bands, firehouses and parties. Mark tried out for a band in NYC and got the gig. This was a high-powered rock group. They played all over New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. They released a CD.  It sold over 2000 copies.

In 1994 Mark moved to LA and founded a band. They played the clubs on the strip and opened for some major acts. Giovi also started a Jazz trio to play Beverly Hills. While he was singing in LA a woman he knew started working for a recording act (Aaron Carter). She asked him to come aboard and be his vocal coach.

Giovi then became Aaron Carters’ Tour Manager for 3 years. Traveling all over the World and opening for NSYNC, Britney Spears and the Backstreet Boys. They were headlining for 10,000 to 20,000 seat arenas. Mark also sang backups for Aaron Carter during these shows.

Marc has been on national TV many times including Wayne Brady, Regis and Kathy Lee, the Today Show, United Cerebral Palsy Telethon and Your Big Break.

Mark now live in Las Vegas and he is performing in many clubs such as Café Nicole and Bootlegger Bistro. He also have been in shows such as Neon Knights at Boulder Station Casino and Harvest Moon Dance at the Sahara.  Marc has been written up in the Las Vegas Sun a number of times. He is also releasing a CD, produced by Buddy Greco.

Giovi is now a member of the “Las Vegas Tenors” which began in 2005 when Bill Fayne was asked to put together a group of singers to perform a concert of eclectic music from various genres. Bill, a classically trained singer loves Opera and Broadway, and Bobby and Mark were more contemporary singers who are comfortable singing Bon Jovi, Garth Brooks, R & B, as well as the classics, and Teddy Davey has experience in theater, pop and classical Italian songs. It seemed like a good idea, but no one could have predicted the incredible response to their shows. Sold-out performances at “The Bootlegger” restaurant have led to appearances at “The Stirling Club” and other venues in Las Vegas and the demand continues to grow.  It is our hope is that they can sing and perform many types of music that appeals to a wide variety of listeners
