ABOUT

After 11 years with Ventura Highway Revisited (VHR), COVID pretty much closed everything down. It has been almost 4 years of no music, and now I’m curious to see if there’s interest in doing music from Toto, Steely Dan - that sort of thing.

I guess the other thing I should add - I design and sell a synthesizer, called the Solaris. I’ve been involved with synths since 1973, when I worked for Moog, as well as a major involvement with the Prophet 5 development and all of the original Sequential Circuits products. You can see my About page at johnbowen.com for more info.
