Anne Bowen is a member of The Deadly Nightshade, a rock and country trio originally consisting of  Anne, Pamela Brandt, and Helen Hooke.   It was one of the earliest all-women rock bands signed to a major label. In 1972, Ann reunited with former bandmates Brandt and Hooke  (from Ariel) to play at a women’s festival, and now called themselves The Deadly Nightshade. In 1974, the band secured one of the first record contracts as an all-female band to a major label, and went on to release two albums. They broke up in 1977, when Ann decided to pursue other interests.  And then – yet another band reunion happened in 2008 and in 2012, they released a third CD, Never Gonna Stop. Unfortunately Pamela Brandt, died in 2015.

However, Anne and Helen decided the best way to honor Pamela was to keep the music going and they still perform as a duo, and sometimes a trio with Lisa Koch on bass.  They will be playing at Hotel Congress on the Plaza on March 8, 2024at a mini-fest for International Women’s Day.
