Write a commentThe Oswego Music Hall is proud to announce an evening of Roots based Americana served up as you like it by the father and son duo, Beaucoup Blue. You can enjoy the music by this award winning duo on the Music Hall stage located at the Mcrobie Building, 41 Lake Street Oswego. Doors open at 6:45 for the 7:30 event. Advance sale tickets are available for $16 in advance and at the door for $18.
Beaucoup Blue is the Americana Philadelphia based duo of David and Adrian Mowry. The father and son have been performing their roots based music nationally and internationally as a duo, quartet and on occasion quintet. Bridging many gaps in American music, their soulful traditional and contemporary styles mesh into an innovative and authentic sound. Although blues is a staple in their repertoire, they base their love in music from Folk, Soul, R&B, Jazz, Country and Bluegrass. All these interests and influences come out in their original song-writing in a unique way.
Whether performing their own award winning songs or covers of other great artists, they utilize a handsome range of instruments like six and twelve string guitars, slide guitar, round neck resonator guitar, combined with two soulful voices, which encompasses a rich honest feel, noticeably influenced by familial ties. Hear for yourself two generations coming together for the common good of great music everywhere.
