Bob Haring

Bob Haring was an American popular music bandleader of the 1920s and 1930s.

Haring held a contract with Cameo Records and recorded 78rpm records under a plethora of orchestra names, such as The Caroliners, The Lincoln Dance Orchestra, The Society Night Club Orchestra, King Solomon and His Miners, and The Colonial Club Orchestra, in addition to his own Bob Haring & His Velvetone Orchestra. Cameo was a label known for its murky business practices, which included releasing cover versions of hits for other Cameo artists on subsidiary labels.

Haring's discography is difficult to trace, since many of the sides he performed on do not actually list his name. However, several dozen sessions on which Haring led or arranged an orchestra have been catalogued by discographers, mostly falling between 1920 and 1931. His recordings with The Colonial Club Orchestra were his most popular.
