CBW was Coordinator-along with his wife Nancy-in 2007 running Camp Gulfside for UMCOR and overseeing building and rebuilding projects in Waveland, Mississippi which facilitated 56 new Volunteers each week for the rebuilding efforts from Hurricane Katrina. That is where CBW was 1st tagged as Cowboy Bob Wallace since there were so many Bob's in the region and since CBW was then from California Out West-Bob's staff decided that Cowboy Bob would be the best way to get his attention when calling out for him. "Hey Cowboy Bob!"

Bob was a lead singer in a rock band in the 60's (Neon Rainbow-& Rosenburg Times) He worked in radio in the 70's as a newsman and as a Top 40 deejay(known as Governor George) in Arizona(KTAN) and a country deejay in Key West Florida(WKWF). In the 70's Bob wrote several country songs with a little success and in 1979 Bob wrote the song "How Do You Like Me Now" and gave it to an artist without a copyright and lost all rights to the song. Bob didn't do much with his songwriting through the 80's & 90's and in 2007 while serving in Mississippi he was inspired to write a song for and about/for "Volunteers" and recorded the song in Nashville and at that started writing Christian genre songs that he called "Christian Music for People Who Really Listen to Christian Music..& for those who do!" CBW and Gary Carter worked up arrangements that had a sound somewhat pleasing to almost any ear with a definite Christian message in the words-Songs that Christian or Non-Christians could enjoy and not the standard cookie cutter sounds being produced in todays so called country music. CBW has recorded 7 Albums over the years since 2007 and has had his music played at radio stations and had sales all over the world.
