Three songwriters from three different backgrounds converge to form an amalgamation of lyrical imagery, instrumental sensitivity, and heartfelt performance. Tex Santos, Chris "DJ Gristle" Steude, and The Captain Chas (or Chas) arrived upon each other sharing the same connections with the others' music; and found in each other the muse needed to produce something both spontaneous and poignant. DJ Gristle unleashes his unending stream of creative song production. Tex Santos brings his gift for overarching and relevant imagery to the table. The Captain Chas adds instrumental meat and lyrical wit. Combined, the Orsons strive to compliment each others' styles and produce something truly worthwhile.

Claire and I have returned from our 3 months EU& UK tour. So, I just posted a note about what's going on with The Bowmans on facebook... and then I started writing a mass email... and then I decided against it... so I'm doing this instead.

We have a sneak preview of the new album (Produced by Malcolm Burn, Mastered by Greg Calbi) up for 5 days only… and it can be bought within the next 5 days only!
Just thought we'd drop by and say HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hope you're having a great one! Oh, and btw, we just added 3 new songs off of our new record...

Okay- On November 10, Randy Burke whooped up on .666 of the Orsons and got his goggles back ! ... after these two Hooligans, "Chaz" and "Oh Please give me a dollar Tex Santos" acted like children and TOOK away Mr. Burke's goggles.. Of course, they were dumbfounded at the quick aggression of Randall, who amazingly and unflinchingly confronted both "Tex" and "Chaz" -- the foes were defeated, the goggles secured, but then Ralph the DOORMAN threw out Randy and ONLY Randy ...Oh the Pity !!! !!!
