His singing and playing have been enjoyed at traditional concert, pub, and festival venues across the United States, Canada, and Ireland. His performances couple a great singing voice with an accomplished instrumental style- he is a two-time medal winner in the prestigious All-Ireland Music Championships. He was joined in these competitions by long-time music partner Bruce Gartner, whose superb mandolin playing is heard on Bowen’s recent CD, Fresh From The Past. Also joining him on his recording and at this concert will be skilled violinist/fiddler Andy Rogers, whose broad brush talents cover many playing styles, and who has performed with Bowen for over thirty years.
