Biography

Bumblefoot (aka Ron Thal) is a recording artist with over twenty years of albums and releases. Fronting his solo band as lead singer/guitarist, the music is hard rock, bordering on quirky and experimental. Known for his down-to-Earth obnoxious punky attitude, mixed with off-center abstract intellectuality, and a sense that he’s just being himself with you - whether playing lead guitar onstage with Guns N’ Roses in front of 100,000 people headlining a European festival, or in a one-on-one conversation.

Since the early 90’s Ron has released over 200 songs through solo CDs and DVDs, and digital releases. He’s had numerous appearances on compilation CDs and as a guest performer for other artists, appeared on magazine covers, and as a soloist toured internationally headlining venues and guitar festivals. In 2008 Ron released the “Abnormal” album, described as “Sex Pistols meets Queen, with innovative guitar and a quirky Zappa-esque twist…” In 2011 he released a song a month that included transcriptions, alternate mixes and recording stems, as an innovative way to release singles.

As a child, Ron would play Bach pieces with his feet. Today, his guitar-work can be heard on Guns N’ Roses’ Chinese Democracy album, the theme of VH1’s “That Metal Show”, the Latin acoustic guitar on Jessica Simpson’s “Irresistible” dance mix, and CNN-Turkey station IDs to name a few. Live, he’s just as diverse, whether touring the world with GNR or at local fundraisers (notably performing with Nancy Sinatra, Cyndi Lauper, composer Fahir Atakoglu, and jazz legend Allen Toussaint.)
