I quote Matt Morelock of WDVX in Knoxville, TN on our broadcast this March: "I always say that The Bowmans sound is like- if Simon and Garfunkel were two twin sisters from Iowa." and Jeff on WDOD in Chattanooga, "The female Jayhawks!" and Al Moss AMA, Nashville "Female Simon and Garfunkle..." (again!) Yes, but we rock a wee bit harder than those guys do...
We are on our May and June tour! This will be a fun one. Please look at our schedule for show locations. I hope to see everyone there! Also, read our first review of the upcoming album: HERE

The BBC Radio 2 Bob Harris show will feature The Bowmans on May 16!
With harmonies that seem to come from one astonishing voice, The Bowmans share a rare, near telepathic musical bond. The touring twins are a Brooklyn based “roller coaster” duo, ranging 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.

As always a double A
Monster Maker -
Wailing psychedelic guitar versus smoked-out keys... man versus monster... the big final battle that sees blood shed on the desk, the eyeball to eyeball... amped up, beefed up sonic attack sees the victor stood cold sweats. Blooded, victorious and damned.
I Think You Two Should Leave -
Funk, as imagined by Tortoise taking on The James Gang... white boy distorted funk meets gonzoid electronics, all shot in Super 8 with Bruce Lee.

Sweet words are easy to say, Sweet things are easy 2 buy, But sweet people are difficult to find! Life ends when U stop dreaming, Hope ends when U stop believing, Love ends when U stop caring, Friendship ends when U stop sharing. So share this with whom ever U consider a friend. To love without condition, To talk without intention, To give without reason, And to care without expectation is the heart of a true friend... Forward this to all the people whom U consider as your true friend. Dont forget to send it back to ME ..... If U Care........ Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you smile. Send to all the people you love or don't want to lose in 2009, even me.... If you get 3 back, you are a great friend
