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 Come to the Fountain (live)

This is another hymn that I have modified slightly with a modern worship chorus. Based on the first and fourth stanzas of “Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing” I then added an original chorus and bridge section. This is one of the songs that will be released soon on the upcoming hymns project.

0 Hymn #342 (Live at Mystic)

My friend Tanner Johnson came down to Southern Oregon to record his amazing violin talents on some songs we were working on in the studio, and this impromptu concert is what happened later in the evening after a full day in the studio.

This first song we did is my new rendition of Charles Wesley’s first hymn, “Where Shall My Wondering Soul Begin?”, which is found today as Hymn #342 in the United Methodist Hymnal. I took some liberties to convert the hymn into more of a modern worship chorus, and this is the result. Enjoy as Nick Garrett-Powell, Tanner and I jam it up in my parent’s living room.

0 Happy Ever After (Live at the Leavitt Wedding)

This is the love song I wrote for Nate & Rayleigh Leavitt’s wedding. It tells the story of how they got together and how (now that they are married) they will live “Happy Ever After”. Rayleigh is a big fan of Owl City so she asked me to write a song reminiscent of his style and this is what I came up with. Congrats you two!

0 Starting (Live at the Stewart Wedding)

Here’s a little live video of me singing my song, “Starting”, as the backdrop to a slide show at our friends’ Travis and Mary’s wedding celebration on October 10, 2009. This song tells the story of how my wife and I first met and started our new life together and is a similar parallel to Travis and Mary’s story as well so they asked me to sing it at their wedding. Congratulations you two! So happy for you both! May God lead you as you start your new life together!
