Jazz Guitarist Max Bowen

I play solo guitar renditions of American Songbook tunes and jazz standards. I've played countless background gigs over the past 15+ years and would love to provide classy and affordable music for your event.

Max Bowen is an Ann Arbor born jazz guitarist. An alumnus of Community High School's jazz program, he recently completed a Masters of Music at University of Michigan. His influences include Grant Green, Barney Kessel, and Pat Martino. At Michigan he studied guitar privately with Miles Okazaki and performed with the Jazz Ensemble under the direction of professor Ellen Rowe. Max has performed in venues around the Midwest, including Cliff Bell's in Detroit, Andy's in Chicago, and Milwaukee's Jazz Estate. He recently toured with the hip-hop collective Ruby Yacht, opening for Future Islands.

I typically just need an outlet and a place to sit- keep it simple!
