About Me |

| Here’s some new media from our recent SE tour.. Watch The Bowmans on Good Day Atlanta!
THANK YOU for your tremendous support in helping us achieve the amazing honor of joining our heroes, Lyle Lovett, Patty Griffin, Emmylou Harris, and other incredible talents for the Paste Magazine Cayamo Cruise this past February. www.cayamo.com Listen for us in Starbucks! 4 of our tracks will be on rotation in 10,000 + stores! We’re happy to be joining Rounder Records in Europe, and looking forward to a March 2008 release of "Far from Home" across the sea! Following our album’s release, we’ll be touring Europe this Spring, so look for unfolding tour dates on our Myspace calendar. With harmonies that seem to come from one astonishing voice, The Bowmans share a rare, near telepathic musical bond. The Brooklyn based “roller coaster” duo ranges from poignantly captivating to serendipitously joyful. Their music is concurrently sophisticated and imaginative, blending together the preserved vulnerability and abandoned glee of their childhood. The Bowmans deeply move and delight their audience world wide with uncanny, evocative, and unforgettable performances. Sweeping across a full range of passions, the cohesive debut album from The Bowmans, Far from Home, ( Mother West Records ) includes shattering acoustic harmony-rich ballads to heartening rock songs infused with early classical and gospel influences. The duo’s sound has been compared to Gillian Welch, Neil Young and Joni Mitchell, to name a few, but they are impossible to pigeonhole. Sarah and Claire Bowman have the unique intuitive connection common to twins who have performed together since youth, and because of this they are clearly always on the same musical page. The album can be purchased online at Mother West Records Also check out TheBowmansMusic.com If you want to be on the Bowmans’ mailing list or FOR BOOKING, email Claire with a distinct subject line. Please do not make booking inquiries on myspace...they are easy to lose track of here. :-) Watch The Bowmans Peform Live at Joe’s Pub, March 2007: |
