Hey y’all, I’m Corey. I was born and raised in North Carolina and if you ask my grandfather he’ll tell you I’m very much a Carolina boy at heart. Here’s a little bit about my musical journey, so glad you’re here!

Guitar came into my life at the age of 11 when my dad showed me a few chords and I took it and ran with it. After a few years I was playing in several different bands and really enjoying it, but somewhere along the way life happened; I took up other hobbies and didn’t play music for about 5 years.

I found my way back to music in my early twenties and the passion I felt when I was younger came back full force. Songwriting has become a way for me to process some of the harder experiences I’ve been through, including my father relapsing back into addiction in a big way, as well as reflect back on the good times in my life. I love writing songs that other people really seem to resonate with. The energy exchange that happens when people really connect with your music is one of the awesome highs we get as musicians; it’s so special to me to be able to move other people in that way and see that I’ve touched on something that feels really real to them.

Before I decided to pursue my passion for music I was running a successful construction company but my heart just wasn’t in it. All of the doors that have opened for me so far on this path have been really amazing, and they wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t taken a leap of faith to pursue my dream.

If you’ve got a dream, you’ve gotta chase it, and if you believe in it, that’s the only thing that matters. Everything else will fall into place if you believe in yourself. Otherwise, you’re at square one and you’re gonna stay there until you believe in yourself. That lesson has been tenfold over for me and I’m so grateful for my family and friends who have consistently supported me and pushed me to pursue music. Their faith in me is no small part of the belief I have in myself and why I get to be here sharing my music with you.

I’m so happy you’ve found my music and so grateful you’re taking the time to listen. If you want to connect, feel free to reach out to me at corey@coreybowersband.com or on social!

Much love y’all,

Corey
