The self-titled Ronnie Bowman album released in 2019 is a late-career studio record from one of contemporary bluegrass's most respected bass vocalists, a singer whose low register anchors the harmony structures of whatever band or ensemble he inhabits. Bowman spent years as the bass voice for Lonesome River Band before building a solo career. His albums tend toward strong song selection and uncluttered production, allowing his voice — one of the genre's genuine instruments — to do the primary work. The record reflects the confidence of a musician who knows exactly what he does well and does it without apology.
