We're a group of friends who've got a love for music that just won't let us be. Our paths have crossed and re-crossed for years or only just recently. We have played with some of the finest musicians you've never heard of and even call some of them friends. We've been around enough to know we only want to play what we like, what's fun, what sounds good to us. Hope that works for you too. http://bowthayer.com/about

Twangville
Album of the Month

The Herald of Randolph
I’m sorry if ‘blown away’ is an oft-used word in anyone’s language, much less a music reviewer’s, but I was.

Boston Band Crush
Bow and co., all full-time musicians who have worked with everyone from locals like Miss Tess and Jimmy Ryan to legends like Booker T Jones, have the chops—and more importantly the heart—to pull off the tiniest, the most grandiose, and everything in between.

Seattle Post-Intelligencer
An outfit that should be on all Seattleites' radar is Bow Thayer and Perfect Trainwreck… On "Bottom of the Sky," all the players contribute to an intricate and layered sound that sets Bow apart from many of their contemporaries. This is a band that is worth many listens.

B&B Entertainment Blog
Think of the rousing and rollicking bluegrass sounds from the "O, Brother Where Art Thou" soundtrack mixed with smokin’ electric blues and heartfelt and poetic lyrics.

Folk & Acoustic Music Exchange
The sounds Mr. Thayer wrings from his electric banjo are off the beaten path and blazing a new direction.
