(V)OWLS Around the House

Where have we been and what have we been doing?

Cultivating, Creating and Curating the fresh and new inspirations that spring time (and the threat of global pandemic) brings.

We had a big year in 2019 with shows and recording. We all put in a lot of hard work to gig, make merch, record, practice, maintain our six personal lives, and still remaining creative and writing new material. We did it though.

That is the magic of (V)OWLS. We persist.

We keep pushing. We are determined.

All six of us share the passion and compulsion to create art in every single interaction of our lives. The tiniest actions in our days are glittering and glistening in our creative thoughts. Whether we are caught in the waves of music, unearthing the pigments in visual art, spinning the webs of dream wheels or forging mighty swords from lavish linguistics, WE ARE ARTISTS.

The recent global situation has left us separated and in quarantine, but we are still connected in our hearts and through technology(Thanks internet). We have been creating new music, art, gardens, books, plays and so much more. We hope to come back from quarantine with new material and even more drive than previous years.

We ask you now, what are you creating today?

“The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago, the next best time is right now.”

Get out there (stay home though) and create a new experience.

We are here for you. We are here to support you with our music and our friendship.

Enjoy our music. We love you.

Let Us All Be Home – Episode 3 – “Thank You Bruce Lee”

Enjoy this sweet video of us playing one of our favorite songs, “Thank You Bruce Lee.”


“The way to transcend karma lies in the proper use of your mind and will. The oneness of all life is a truth that can be fully realized when all false notions of the separate self, Whose destiny can be considered apart from the whole, Are forever annihilated. ” -Bruce Lee

Presenting our third video, “Thank You Bruce Lee,” in the Let Us All Be Home Video Series. We have taken a series of videos at Caitlyn’s childhood home and created this series to pay homage to all of the hard work, dedication, and love that has brought each of the individual VOWLS together in this moment. As we take inspiration from the Dragon himself, Bruce Lee’s legacy has shown us that with simple ideas, directness, perseverance and love we can do anything. Like water we adapt, change and grow continuously in our effervescent sound. We hope you enjoy this video.

We are going to be hosting an EP/Mixtape Release Party on Nov. 2nd

Check out our Google Calendar for details.

VOWLS NYE at Cypress and Grove

Another great year off to a great start at Cypress and Grove Brewing Co. This show was curated by Russ Tyndall with the help of our expert sound engineer Tristan Harvey. Four local artists took the stage and ended 2018 with sweet music and good times.

Up first we had TJ Washburn from Orlando, Florida. TJ is a storyteller and his songs reflect that. His songs are intriguing, captivating and relatable. His new album Seasons is now available on major streaming platforms.
Here is his Youtube Channel and below is his video for an original song titled “St. George and the Dragon.”

Up after TJ was the local legends The Dozenaires. If you have been to Gainesville’s own Hoggetowne Medieval Faire and the Thornebrook Arts Festival then you know the exquisite Irish and World musical styling of The Dozenaires.

After us the FUNKY MIRACLE brought the funk with a tribute to the musical styling of The Meters. The Funky Miracle had everyone at Cissy Strutting and dancing all over Cypress and Grove. They had the crowd moving during the whole duration of their set. They really FUNKed it up.

WELCOME EMILY!

We have added a new member to our collective! Meet Sweet Irene! She is a saxophonist, a kazoo extraordinaire, ukulele master, gourd player,  and she has the voice of an angel!

“Sweet Irene has been writing poetry and singing songs since she was a young girl. Being raised with strong musical influence in the household led to her dabbling a little bit with all sorts of instruments, if nothing else just to understand them. She has a jazzy-folk fusion vibe with sweet voice to tug at your heart strings. She currently plays from her list of covers while she prepares her originals for the public eye. She hopes that you enjoy her sound as much as she enjoys producing it!”

We are so excited to collaborate with you Emily!
