Long-time friends, Bob Fowler and Steve Branca worked together in bands since 1979 and have written and recorded original music together for over 30 years.
Their unique songwriting style incorporates an eclectic mixture of genre including World, Latin, Jazz, Smooth Jazz, R&B, Latin, and even a bit of Country. Their melodies and arrangements are beautiful, memorable, and create a vibe that is relaxed, thoughtful, positive and uplifting. As many a fan has described, "It is the ultimate chill music" perfect for long drives, quite get-togethers and intimate moments.
Though most of their collaboration has been in the confines of the recording studio, recently at the request of friends, Fowler and Branca took their music on the road performing songs from their CDs and a few new compositions for a few special functions. The experience was great success and everyone attending encouraged continued performances. Bob and Steve found playing live together really enjoyable and it has sparked an exciting beginning to a new career as performance artists.
Fowler and Branca are a perfect addition to special social events, cocktail parties, corporate functions, stores /galleries openings and other situations that call for a unique, relaxed atmosphere enhanced by beautifully composed, original music.
