Bowker Creek

Playing together since 2009, Bowker Creek performs its unique arrangements of familiar and less familiar songs, as well as original compositions, from a wide range of musical genres that include folk, country, rock, old time, swing and yes, even bluegrass. Based in Victoria, Bowker Creek has played all over southern Vancouver Island….from Courtney to Sooke and most places in between.

It has entertained audiences at folk clubs, bluegrass clubs, summer markets, Christmas markets, wineries and cideries, fund raisers (coincidently one for the Bowker Creek…the waterway…restoration project) and weekend music festivals. Bowker Creek has even opened for Fred Penner!

Bowker Creek gets its name from the largest creek that flows through the municipalities of Saanich, Victoria and Oak Bay. It's a creek that's only a 'banjo-throw' away from where most of the band members live.
