About Me |
|
| Born and raised as a small town girl from Ohio, Crystal Bowersox has spread her country roots into the big city pavement of Chicago, known for it's long history in Blues. When the two worlds collide, a heartfelt-folk, yet gritty, blues and soul sound emerged. At the age of 10, Crystal played her first guitar, performed her first live show, and hasn't been able to put it down or escape the gravity of the stage ever since. With her strong songwriting ability and vocal precision, Crystal Bowersox is a moment not to be missed. Her songs are lyrically rich, musically layered with a hint of old-school soul, and filled to the brim with her personal stories of triumph, devastation, and true passion. During her live performances, it has been said that the musical spirit of Janis Joplin channels her way through Crystal's frame, capturing the raw essence of her passionate performances. Recently, Crystal Bowersox has been performing internationally, including: Birmingham, UK; Istanbul, Turkey; Mexico; Memphis, TN, and is currently working hard in the studio toward the release of her highly anticipated debut album, due to be released in the Fall of 2008.Old Video... Look, no Dreads!! Jammin' with the great Jeff Brown/What People are saying:"There are not many things in the world that warm my heart enough to produce a genuine loving smile, but Crystal Bowersox's voice does that. I met her while she was performing at a train station. Her voice stopped me and I missed the train in order to talk to her. I asked her if she would perform at a silent auction I was having in trade for some photographs (I had no money but I had my talent), she agreed. Her voice blew away my guests. I have an arrangement that she'll sing at my shows if I keep taking her picture, I'm holding onto that as long as I can!"http://www.thestonejones.com/entertainmentezine111605.h tml Crystal Bowersox is playing at the House of Blues on Nov. 21, 2005, 9-11pm. This singer, not easily pigeonholed, has a sound probably best described as country rock or folk/rock. Her clear, clean vocals lilt on top of gritty lyrics and an acoustic guitar. Better than most of the drivel that's appeared on American Idol lately, this singer is poised to claim her spot in our memories. At $5 for Monday night's performance, the evening is a steal for something to do worth doing in Chicago. For more information, contact the artist at http://www.myspace/crystallbowersox | |
