Why Bonnie

Why Bonnie is a band led by singer-songwriter Blair Howerton, that started out in Austin, playing a kind of indie rock that tips its hat in the direction of the folk-oriented and easy-flowing country rock of artists like Shawn Colvin and Sheryl Crow. Howerton's understated vocals and the band's overall relaxed sound and relatively mellow tones project plenty of warmth. Their songs often come with quality hooks that keep the engine rolling forward. The initial set of EPS they released earlier in their career were more on the jangly side with uptempo pop and some dream pop vibes perhaps along the lines of The Cranberries, which they have clearly moved away from over the years.
