Produced by John Osborne (Brothers Osborne), Wine On Venus captures the one-of-a-kind energy of Grace Bowers’ live performances with The Hodge Podge. The record features Bowers on guitar, Joshua Blaylock on keys, Brandon Combs on drums, Eric Fortaleza on bass , Prince Parker on guitar, and Esther Okai-Tetteh provides vocals. Songwriting collaborators include Ben Chapman, Meg McRee, Maggie Rose and Lucie Silvas. Garden & Gun declares, “Phenom Grace Bowers is poised for six-string stardom,” while Forbes praises, “an infectious, joyous party and a worthy introduction to Bowers,” and The Bluegrass Situation proclaims, “an exceptional breakout talent who seems primed for a long career to come.”

Reflecting on the project, Bowers shares, “I’m so excited to share my first album with the world! 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.”

Wine on Venus is available to preorder here on limited edition red, yellow and green colored vinyl.
