Nostalgic folk music with banjo sounds
Brian Bowers paints a simple and warm picture of his hometown through his unique autoharp and banjo playing.
While based on traditional folk music, his sincere vocals infuse his work with a contemporary sensibility. The soft tones of acoustic instruments and his poetic worldview that captures the everyday lives of people bring deep comfort to the listener's heart.
