BrownChicken BrownCow StringBand began performing in the Spring of 2008 in West Virginia. BrownChicken gelled as a group fast, effortlessly. During late evening jams at various back porches and campfires the band was born. The boys spent a lot of time together, really listening to each other, the results of which quickly began to show up in the music. In the Fall of 2008 BrownChicken BrownCow StringBand moved to Maui, Hawaii and released our first album: "Fruit Goggles". When they first arrived in Maui they began performing on the streets of Paia meeting folks and exploring.

While touring Maui the band wrote their second album: "Gallop on You". This album includes some of the first tour's favorite works: Gypsy Jig, Bees Making Honey, Put you in the Ground, and many more. Since then BrownChicken has toured the United States coast to coast non-stop. The Band turned two years old this past August 2010 and released their third Album : "...It's a Deep Sbject" in West Virginia on July 2, 2010 at the Wild Bean in Lewisburg. BrownChicken BrownCow StringBand makes it back to their home state of West Virginia once a year to visit and perform. Look for them their in August 2011.
I feel blessed to know these guys! They Rock the strings and make me happy. I find myself singing along in my garage as I work. There's just something you have to love about these boys. The soul that come across in their songs, their whisky drinking, wild eyes and fast fingers...well that says a lot....I Love you guys and I hope to see you soon!
Everyone else,
