It is serendipity when one’s name matches one’s being and the natural reaction of all those in his presence. When John Cowan sings any note the reflexive response of all within earshot is “Holy Cow.” Wow. Can anyone’s voice be that good? Yes, Cowan’s can. And, we are blessed that he shares it with us.It is nothing short of heavenly. Mic in hand, head tilted back, eyes a-twinkling, he belts out the songs, filling our ears and hearts with joy. The world is as it should be when John Cowan sings to us. Bliss saturates our blood. We melt from inside out; song after song, his voice soothes us like our second hot buttered rum. We embrace the massive group hug he provides and wish his words would wash over us forever.
