As the limodriver for the elite of rock-n-roll, Bowman was immersed in the industry.


  
       Tom Kiefer of Cinderella                         Ozzy Ozbourne                           Motley Crue



Also known as "The Limoman", Bowman was a musician in his own right, with several recordings to his credit.

His musical background has given him an understanding as to the needs of an artist. His fortutious meeting with the legendary Gazzarri, inspired him to help musicians receive the honor they deserve.
