Bryan Bowers, widely regarded as the leading virtuoso on the autoharp, is also a gifted singer, songwriter and story teller.  A true American icon, he never fails to amaze and capture his audience.  In 1993, Bowers was inducted into the Autoharp Hall of Fame to stand only with Maybelle Carter, Kilby Snow, and Sara Carter.  And, after five years of winning the stringed instrument open category of Frets Magazine's readers' poll, Bowers was inducted into the magazine's First Gallery of the Greats.  This distinction put him alongside other luminaries, such as Chet Atkins, David Grisman, Itzhak Perlman, Tony Rice, Rob Wasserman and Mark O'Connor.

Bowers has earned his place in the history books as a major influence on American music.  According to The Washington Times, Bowers "makes more music from an Autoharp than you can imagine from a 12-string guitar and a harpsichord combined.  He has more stage presence and charisma than any stage performer in recent memory."
