Live Videos | Dawson Cowals

Coming soon to a couch near you! We’ve been booking some intimate home shows in the Portland area this summer and are looking for some more homes to invade. So if you would like to host an Acoustic Living Room Concert please let us know!
“Cowals’ tunes are full and captivating whether he is playing solo acoustic guitar or accompanied by a handful of other talented musicians. The multi-talented artist’s flute work and lackadaisical vocal octave jumps throughout certain songs also give these Biblical verse driven tunes a Dave Matthews feel.” —Kelly O’Neil

0 I Will Sing of the Lord’s Great Love (Live at Exchange Church)

I was invited to come and fellowship and lead worship at Exchange Church in Forest Grove on Sunday, September 1, 2013. My wife Jessica sang with me along with the great band from the church. I apologize for the shaky video. My nephew was helping us record some of the songs live and was doing so without a tripod. This is one of my original worship songs based mostly on Psalm 59 & 89. We don’t have a studio recording yet of this song so I hope you enjoy this live version despite the shaky video!

0 God So Loved (live)

This is a new song I wrote this week based mostly on the familiar passage of John 3:16. As it is Easter week I was reading and reflecting on the amazing gift of salvation and God’s grace. I realized that I sometimes overlook this verse just because it has become so familiar since childhood, but I wanted to reawaken the wonder and thankfulness for the message it contains. The other verses used are listed at the bottom of the lyrics.

0 Be Still (Live at Mystic)

Here is another song that Nick and I did in our little impromptu living room concert back in August 2011. The dog, Waldo, was apparently trying to lick someone’s dinner plate and was getting reprimanded toward the beginning of the song. What can you do about dog drama? 😉 We played a slightly extended version of the song since Nick was there to do some gorgeous soloing on top of it.

This is a song I wrote back in September of 2010 while we were going through a bit of a rocky time financially and not knowing from month to month how we would pay the bills or put food on the table. I hope this song can speak and minister to anyone else who has gone through, or is currently going through a similar trial.

0 Help Me Get It Right (Live at Mystic)

This is a song I wrote in April 2011 based on the familiar passage found in James 3 about controlling the tongue. This version is part of a little impromptu late night living room concert down in Grants Pass, Oregon on August 18, 2011. My amazingly talented friend, Nick Garrett-Powell joined me with some fantastic accompaniment even though this was the first time he had heard the song!
