Dove and Boweevil
Next up, down and dirty delta
blues from deepest Norwich, from the acclaimed duo Dove and Boweevil, which
is comprised of vocalist Lauren Dove and guitarist Mark 'Boweevil' Howes.
They take the blues, shake it up and add some sultry folkiness. Dove's vocals
slip seamlessly between smoky, sensual and surly, and are the perfect
complement to Howes' twanging delta guitar. Listen to them play and you could
close your eyes and see the smoke rising over the banks as the steamboats
rolled out onto the Mississippi.
When listening to Dove and Boweevil you hear echoes of such artists as Eric
Bibb, Susan Tedeschi, Howling Wolf and Son House. Watching them play live is
an incredibly absorbing experience - Dove seeming to sing every word to you
as intimately as if it was intended for you personally, while the Boweevil is
seemingly oblivious to the presence of the crowd, a man who would be as happy
strumming away to himself under an empty sky.
A Dove and Boweevil concert feels like a shared journey through a raw,
untempered sound from the heart of the Deep South to a cultured freedom where
the horizon drifts away forever and anything at all is possible.
