OY BOWLES
& THE FELLOWSHIP

is a band that fuses the roots of blues with the spontaneity

of jazz with twinges of gospel, country & rock.

“The idea behind The Fellowship is a rotating swirl of musicians playing together under one common goal- play your heart out & get down with the get down. I wrote & arranged tunes in a way in which the listener could appreciate the songs for the melody & lyrics but still have sections where the music was highly improvisational & could change on a nightly basis."

- Coy Bowles

"I really wanted to compose music that the listeners could connect to- music which possessed a distinct & completely original sound, while still giving a ‘hat-nod’ to my musical heroes.”
-Coy Bowles

I personally think that understanding basic music theory is essential to being a well-rounded musician. Basic music theory gives you a foundation to support your musical journey. I find that it feeds my creativity by showing me logical possibilities and new ideas. If you are interested in learning more, download my three free lessons.
