The Puffers are Coming



Bob and Darleen Puffer will be here Friday, January 25th, at 7:00pm. This will be a FREE concert and everyone is invited!

Bob Puffer spent 13 years in country music, beginning his music career in the nightclub business where he made significant progress toward a lucrative future as a performer and song writer. In 1977, Bob succeeded in passing an audition to appear on the national television show, HeeHaw. In 1980, he made an appearance on the Joe Franklin Show. In September of 1986, (and after much prayerful consideration), the Lord led Bob to step out on faith to enter the full-time Gospel music ministry.

The Lord began to open doors, and He inspired Bob to write over 400 songs—some playing on over 2200 radio stations internationally. Bob plays a multitude of instruments including guitar, five-string banjo, violin, mandolin, dobro, gretch (Chet Atkins) guitar, ukulele, and flute. Darleen was saved and gave her life to the Lord in 1985. She added a new dimension to the music ministry with vocals, keyboard, sax and clarinet.

They currently travel throughout the United States with their music ministry, performing between 150 and 200 concerts/services each year. Their music is varied and includes traditional Gospel, as well as Southern Gospel, country, folk and humorous songs (which are often requested). One of those songs, “The Christmas Tree Catastrophe” hit the International Gospel Music Chart in Dec/Jan of 2006/2007, as well as #8 on a music review of 200 radio stations on the East Coast for the top 25 Christmas songs of 2006. Several other songs, written by Bob Puffer, have been on the European Christian Country Chart.
