Featuring Jonathan Bobowicz (of Whitetails) & Reading by Tia Brown
Jonathan Bobowicz brings a long history and deep bag of tricks to the table. More than 25 years of life in bands, including Chylde, White Bison, and most recently, Black Canyon Lights, have cemented in Bobowicz the conviction that music is his life. A singer, songwriter, and player of multiple instruments, he pairs melodies with lyrics that have both meaning and staying power. From the stages at South-by-Southwest to the beer halls in his hometown of Buffalo, NY, Bobowicz and Whitetails are earning their own place in the musical universe.
Tia Brown is a multidisciplinary creative. They are the former editor of Utterance and their work has been featured in One for One Thousand, CivicScience, truthout, and Qween City. Their audiovisual performance, Projections, was featured at the Stay Gold Community Art Party at the Burchfield Penney in January of 2024. They currently live in their hometown Buffalo, New York though they have always hated the snow.
