About the album
Produced by John Osborne (Brothers Osborne), Wine On Venus captures the electric energy of Bowers’ live performances with The Hodge Podge. The record consists of nine soul-infused tracks including a new version of Sly and the Family Stone’s “Dance to the Music” as well as previously release single, “Tell Me Why U Do That,”
Of the record, Bowers shares, “I’m so excited to share my first album with the world in August! It’s been a long time coming, and I’m proud of what was created with the incredible Hodge Podge and John Osborne producing. We recorded everything live, as it should be, for this sonic journey. I hope you love it as much as I do.”
Additionally, of the title track, she reflects, “My nana was 100 years old when she passed away last year. She would always tell me that when she died, she would be drinking wine on Venus. She was a little eccentric but thought that was just something so cool. When she passed, I wrote a song about it.”
One thing is certain when you catch Grace Bowers perform live, you are in absolute awe. She was a true highlight at this year’s BottleRock Napa 2024 Festival. With her red SG Gibson guitar, she blew away crowd after crowd. Not only performing on the main stage but she also played the Jam Pad as well as joining a couple of the sets. Several fans were treated to an intimate performance at the Prudential special stage.
