"Musicians weave stories of life in Iowa"

..perform mostly original music, an organic mix of the sorts of musical styles that have sprung forth on American soil: country, Americana folk, blues, Appalachian bluegrass.

But the twist here is that these guys are from Iowa. They've seen something of the world, but they've chose to come back and take root, creating an unpretentious musical backdrop for the lives of contemporary Iowans...

There's a little bit of American Gothic yearning, a little bit of Midwestern practicality tucked between the notes. And maybe there's some wryly stubborn romanticism, thrown in for good measure.

This isn't the sort of music where you feel the human spirit exalted in the throes of operatic ecstasy. Actually, it's more like warm mud squishing between your toes.

Bio

Mixing humor and energy in every performance, a Home Grown Tomatoes show is an organic music mix of life in Iowa.

The songs are presented in a fun, family friendly program with a selection of original and unique songs designed to meet the specific needs of each event and audience.

The band's goal is to have everyone with a smile on their face, a song in their head they can't get rid of, and thinking of a fond memory of life in Iowa. Their performance is a mixture of American Gothic yearning, mid-western practicality, and stubborn romanticism mixed with humor and terminal sensibility.
