FOWL is Noah Campbell and a basement full of instruments. Growing up in Northern Ontario in the small forestry town of Kapuskasing, entertainment was always what you made of it, never short on fascinating individuals. Preferring the drum kit to the hockey stick, Noah learned to improvise in a variety of styles, playing anywhere and with everyone that passed through town. Eventually learning piano, then bass, then guitar, by the time recording equipment was acquired, other musicians were no longer required! Multi-tracking himself on all instruments allowed for a unique form of free improvisation, where the same mind comments upon itself on various instruments, knowing what is coming note by note. What followed were various forms of an ever changing beast, ranging across genres wantonly, instruments falling where they may, commenting upon, or in contrast to what was played before.
Meanwhile, Noah’s penchant for playing anywhere, anytime, led him to a year long stint as the drummer for Toronto metal band Nice Cat, touring the northern US.
Playing a one off gig at the Waterloo Clay and Glass Museum with a Celtic fusion band called Runners of the Woods.
Performing random improvised shows with Jake Neumann.
Scoring the music for absurdist Mississauga based Ghostlight Theatre Group.
In November 2007, the first FOWL cd was independently commercially released (actually the seventh of MANY completed albums) entitled InaStorMental. Exploring the instrumental side of FOWL’s output, featured are some of his more solid compositions, and a focus on his proficiency for improvisation on the keyboards. Ranging from a psychedelic heavy metal epic featuring Forget Kevin on guitar, to a love inspired jazz waltz, this cd is ECLECTIC. The focus of this CD is FOWL as solid quartet, and leaves behind much of the musique concrete and endless overdubs of found percussion instruments which dominated many earlier albums. Still the element of adventure is ripe and what lies around each musical corner a complete unknown! Dig in and take flight!
The new band is called A Year in A Minute featuring Wade Thompson on guitar and synth and Adam Thompson on bass, CHECK IT OUT!
PLEASE! Help me feed my baby!
BUY MY AMAZING NEW CD InaStorMental!!!! Also available through HMV.

i love the name newby (but spelled newbie...) because steve is a computer geek... AND because he's new! our last guinea pig was called wheaty pie... btw, steve just got a kick-ass bass, and this summer is all about the jam sessions in club stew... so if we ever make it to kap we'll have to play :)
hey! i am myspace delayed... i need help making my page less generic. suggestions or links to safe code or something. facebook is irritating me so i thought that i should just try to convert the masses... so if you can think of a gimmick that would draw them over, keeping i mind that i will not wear jean paul gauthier cones or change my name into a symbol to get a following, let me know.

It is my sad duty to report the news that JIMMY CARL BLACK has passed away. Jimmy left this earth around 11pm Germany time on October 31st. of cancer.
Jimmy lived his life by the second, enjoying each and every bit of it , and still always had plenty to share with everyone he came in contact with. He enriched and inspired many many people's lives and opened so many artistic doors for the rest of us to walk through and reap the benefits.
Although tears do run down my cheeks I know Jimmy would not want us to be sad. He has said to me many times how important his fans were to him and in his last days it was his family he was most concerned with.
A fantastic benefit concert is being planned for December 7th in California, please visit www. myspace. com/quotinprotestofboredomquotthehomegame for more up to date details. We will continue to keep you posted on the Inkanish Record Co. site as well. There is also a big benefit taking place in London on November 9th..... stay tuned for more details there too.
Jimmy's son Geronimo and myself along with many of Jimmy's dear friends intend to keep Inkanish Records alive and thriving to keep Jimmy's music and high ideals alive. We also are going to do all we can to get Jimmy into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame where he has belonged for years!
GOD BLESS JIMMY CARL BLACK AND HIS FAMILY! Jerry Ford
