Bowfire is the Total String Experience... Virtuosity in the hands of Masters.
The hottest new show to hit the stage is quickly becoming a major international success. It is at once an exceptionally high quality music experience and a fast paced theatrically staged show.
The Bowfire company is composed of virtuoso string players who are at the forefront of their respective styles, combined with equally gifted and respected backup musicians: piano/keyboards, bass, drums/percussion, guitars and cello. Fiddlers in the company are world-class step dancers and tap dancers. This avalanche of talent is brought together under the guidance of Creator and Artistic Director, Lenny Solomon and Broadway acclaimed Stage Director, Stafford Arima.
The ultimate string experience with an all Canadian group. A musical journey that moves through Jazz, Classical, Bluegrass, Celtic, Rock, Texas Swing and Cape Breton styles.

Hmmm. What is there to say about this revolutionary group.
Speaking as a guitarist and a cellist, I play classical music, contemporary, rock and roll, metal, and anything that doesn't sound like ass. SO DOES BOWFIRE.
Using revolutionary things like digital grand pianos, electric violins, and 'skeleton cellos,' bowfire does things that will leave the listener stunned.
You can find them on PBS.
their rendition on Led Zeppelin's 'Kashmire' is a notch above kick-ass.
