Dean Bowman should be the most important American singer alive. Cleary, I already think he is. And ‘important’ being a slight distinction from ‘best’ (not that I would be averse to promoting this as well). I’m sure that this isn’t the first time someone has listened to a performer and thought, ‘if everyone just listened to this, people could, would change.’ To say nothing of the powerful orators that we have cast aside, if not outright destroyed. But resilience of spirit should be celebrated and inspire action.
Dean just moved, but is coming back for a week of shows. Go see him. If he doesn’t fill you with joy and make you want to cry at the same time, then your soul must be a sad place. The Thursday shows are the most recommended.
