Would like to thank Sara Routh for a great review of my single "The Rain King" ...
Country music seems to embrace an ever revolving door of styles. Once hailed for its heartfelt stories of love, loss and tears in our beers, it has now leaned its favoritism in a country-pop direction. Pushing aside those aching slide guitar solos to make room for the perfect boot scootin’ boogie beat, we find ourselves at a cross-roads for the future of country music.

The continuously evolving Kete Bowers brings his perfectly, unpolished country sound to us from Liverpool. Described as the ‘Nashville of the North’ Liverpool has embraced its love for country western history and Bowers, aligns flawlessly with it’s lessons. His self produced record “Road” released in 2010, invited his listeners to a world of love and loss. With a sound compared to the late, great Johnny Cash, Bowers’ single, “Chained to You” paints the perfect picture for what happens when love meets that loss.

Close your eyes, and picture this. A lone cowboy on the prairie, astride his oldest friend, a horse of thirty-plus years. The only way he keeps awake under the burning sun is by listening to the constant cadence of his partner’s hooves.

With Bowers latest single produced by Fran Ashcroft, “The Rain King” he introduces us to his newest sound. Keeping with his honest country roots, his play with production, creates a kind of cross bred Zeppelin, Petty and Neil Young mix. He doubles the guitar melody throughout. A crisp acoustic line with a perfectly, not perfect electric sound. “The Rain King,” is sensational.

A story about Bowers’ youth, his simple lyrics, “kids dodging bullets on the high plain… with songs to sing and dreams to live” his newest song, leaves the listener wondering who the Rain King really is. Someone or something that may come save him from his past, present or future.

Kete Bowers continues to invent the “country wheel” for himself and his listeners. I trust “The Rain King” will find its way, to the soundtrack of some Quentin Tarantino flick. Maybe there we can find out who “The Rain King” really is.

Chained To You

There's a little light that burns
In this room a heart that yearns
There's always a reason to believe
Its quiet now peaceful here

I can count on the fingers of just one hand
The number of times you treated me well
Sometimes I think just damm it all to hell
Cheers down the hatch again

On My love
Whats become of me
Oh my love rescue 

I miss you like I miss the truth
I took some chances and I nailed a few
Every drink I take brings me down a peg or two
I'm in so deep I'm drowning here

The fires built under the belly of the ship
Hard men talked while it crackled and spit
You're in trouble here if your face dont fit
The winds whippin up I took a wrong turn

Now this place looks just like hell
Boards on the windows and nailed shut doors
Broken benches where men sat and talked
No dreams to dream here anymore

Oh my love
Whats become of me 
Oh my love rescue me

The devil walks the Tollemache Road
His foot prints clear in the virgin snow
In Flaybrick no flowers grow
It's bitter cold this is a bad road

There's a little light that burns
In this room a heart that yearns
There's always a reason to believe
Its quiet now peaceful here

Kete Bowers new critically acclaimed album Paper Ships was recorded in Toronto, Canada in September 2018 at The Cowboy Junkies Studio "The Hanger" produced by Michael Timmins and mastered by Peter J Moore. All songs written by Kete Bowers.  "Paper Ships released on 28/06/2019.

"Like Cohen before him, Bowers is magnificent proof that melancholy and torment can produce great music and resonant lyrics, there may be ghosts behind us but Paper Ships encourages us to take their hands and walk with them towards the light." 
Mike Davies, folking.com 

The stone cold beauty of this collection of songs is the combination of Bowers’ heartfelt and often gut-wrenching songwriting with a distinctively rich voice and Timmins trademark crisp production that forces the listener to listen intently to every damn word and chord progression.

"Listening to Bowers' rich voice you'd swear he was as Texan as Guy Clark or Townes Van Zandt. Paper Ships is a classic slice of Americana".
