Raised on his parent’s old-school R&B and Funk, surrounded in his LA neighborhood by the sounds of Hip Hop, and inspired by the cinematic sounds of the city’s great film composers, Kris Bowers tried his hand (so to speak) at classical piano before turning to jazz. He worked jamming and touring around his undergrad and graduate work at Julliard, and his career continues to climb. Bower’s plays for us and talks about new album is Heroes + Misfits.
