Cosmic soul cowboy Bosley Brown was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland.
At a young and crucial age, Bosley’s mother gave him a cassette tape of The Temptations, to which he listened incessantly. This simple seed has since blossomed into a continuing love affair with harmony. He began to show a concerted interest in Elvis Presley, Motown, Soul, R&B, Blues, and Rock and Roll, this interest eventually blossoming into a curiosity about all genres of music, art and cultures world wide. Bosley realizes today that saying such things about oneself inevitably sounds pretentious.
In the later part of the last decade, after many travels and a brief hiatus from civilization and organized reality altogether, Bosley reemerged in Baltimore and put a new band together. He recorded his first album in 2011, called Honey Pig. This new record represents his ambitions to continue making music that has style, class, and, most of all, heart.
Bosley does not hear much heart on the radio these days; mostly he hears money, and he suspects that the avarice of certain members of the music and entertainment industries has directly contributed to a homogeneous and incoherent American cultural identity to which the Bos does not closely relate. Bosley also suspects that a lot of people feel similarly disenfranchised by the current climate of popular culture and thinks that’s kinda what happens when we feed our cultural souls with what’s new and hip instead of what’s good. Bosley promises you that he will try always to be good, even though he’s new and hip, as well. Bosley knows that an intelligent audience (like you, reader!) can distinguish genuineness from contrivance, class from kitch, and believes that processed schlock does not serve as a culture. Bosley hopes that through his music and videos he can provide provocative entertainment and make you dance and love and rejoice and connect, and he will try to contribute his small bit to the beautiful lineage of American Music.
