BOWEN * YOUNG’S highly anticipated debut album, Us, is officially released worldwide via Snakefarm Records/PIAS.
Clare Bowen, renowned for her role as Scarlett on the hit TV series ‘Nashville’, and Brandon, a melody-spinner from Connecticut, have come together to deliver a captivating 10-track masterpiece.
Guided by acclaimed Americana songwriter/producer Sean McConnell, Us captures the raw essence of Clare and Brandon’s emotions, weaving together haunting melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and hypnotic harmonies. From facing adversity to celebrating life’s victories, each track resonates with boundless passion, showcasing the duo’s unique blend of ‘Cinematic Americana’.
“We poured our hearts and souls into creating Us, and we couldn’t be more excited to share it with the world,” shares Clare. “It’s a celebration of love, resilience and the power of music to unite us all.”
Brandon adds, “This album is a testament to our journey, our experiences, and the depth of our connection. It’s about embracing every moment, every emotion, and weaving them into something beautiful.”
Us features a diverse range of tracks, from the stripped-back intimacy of ‘Halo’ to the anthemic energy of ‘Hair of the Dog’. Meanwhile, the album’s most recent single, ‘Aurora’, showcases Clare and Brandon’s songwriting prowess and heartfelt storytelling.
