about

BOWHUNTER is the Michigan-based square dance band formed from the driving rhythmic and melodic forces of Michael Beauchamp, Sam Cooper, Sam Herman, and Laurel Premo. With two fiddles, banjo, and guitar BOWHUNTER renders old time tunes to fuel a traditional dance floor frenzy.

“This was my first chance to hear them all together and let me tell you: They get it done, and they do it right. There’s going to be plenty of good dance music in the Midwest for some time to come.”
– Paul Tyler, the Volo Bogtrotters

STORE:
albumcover2On August 11, 2014, we released THE RIGHT HANDS ‘ROUND. The album features traditional and original fiddle tunes that we play at dances as well as a few ballads with sweet harmony singing. The full version of the album (available in cd via the link below) includes jokes and other commentary between a few tunes. The streaming version stripped down – simply the tunes with nothing else. We invite you to choose your own adventure.
