A conversation between Dean Bowman and Armin Alic

the first episode of Season 2.

My guest today is my dear brother, the American maestro vocalist Dean Bowman. Dean and I go back a very long time as we met in 2006 on Myspace, after I have been a fan of his for some time already.

In 2007 we founded the band "Little Rock Nine", and had lots of fun making music together. While the band went on a hiatus in 2009 when my band Royal Street Orchestra came together and became a focus for me, we are still friends and will definitely do some more music together in the future…

In our conversation we are talking about the impact of Covid-19 on Dean´s life, his "tenure" as the original vocalist of David Fiuczynski´s Screaming Headless Torsos, his very diverse body of work, which includes working together with highly acclaimed musicians such as John Scofield, Don Byron, Lester Bowie and many more, being a vocalist, why Jazz can be a white racist word, and many more highly interesting topics…

Definitely an episode you wanna listen to, if you are into Black Music…
