Opener: Turner Porter
Born and raised in West Virginia, Philip Bowen’s uplifting sound is heavily inspired by Appalachian roots. The dynamic, internationally touring singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist began playing fiddle at the age of four, & his virtuoso skills have become quite popular, with over 1.5 Million followers online. He's played iconic venues like The Bluebird Cafe, 3rd & Lindsley, and been a featured performer on NPR's "Mountain Stage." 2023 was a breakout year for Bowen, and saw him share the stage with legends like Darius Rucker, finish as a semifinalist on Season 18 of America's Got Talent, earn a spotlight at Americanafest, and release his debut album, "Old Kanawha."
