BOWMEN is the latest evolution of songwriter Bow Thayer, joined by guitar maverick Krishna Guthrie and anchored by a dynamic rhythm section: honky-tonk heavyweight Eric George on bass and River Thayer (Bow’s son) on drums and percussion.

Rooted in Thayer’s 40-year songwriting legacy, the band revisits a deep and diverse catalog — breathing new life into old songs while fearlessly charting untraveled ground. BOWMEN isn’t just a reinterpretation project; it’s a living, growing organism. Genres blur. Instruments transform. Alternative tunings are standard practice, and Thayer’s signature Bojos shape the band’s unmistakable sonic identity. New material introduces the thunderous Reso-Bojo-Baritone, pushing the low end into uncharted depths.

“How low can you go?”
Come find out.

What makes BOWMEN especially compelling is its generational span. With decades of road-tested experience alongside fresh, youthful energy, the band carries a palpable sense of mentorship and musical continuity. It’s seasoned musicianship meeting fearless exploration — old guys doing something new, young guys doing something timeless.

Thayer’s songwriting moves effortlessly through roots, rock, and global influences, driven by an undercurrent of freedom and unity — a fitting ethos for a band proudly calling Vermont home.

The Stationery Factory

The Stationery Factory, located in the heart of beautiful Berkshire County of western Massachusetts, is a converted industrial building that most recently housed the former Crane & Co. stationery division. In addition to the multiple event and performance spaces, the building also contains many other local businesses and artisans, including a restaurant.

TICKET PRICING

Most events have now moved over to "all in" pricing which means what you see is what you pay.

Example: on a $25 concert ticket, you pay $25, we absorb the processing costs and collect around $22.50

FOOD & DRINK

The Stationery Factory concert spaces both have a full bar available when appropriate.

The Stationery Cafe (located in venue) serves fresh organic popcorn, giant soft pretzels, hot & iced espresso beverages, lattes, mochas, chai and other assorted teas as well as other light snacks.

The Shire Tavern (located downstairs in the building) is another great choice for folks looking for a more complete dining option.

*The Stationery Factory uses washable glasses, mugs, plates and cutlery when possible and items like biodegradable cups, straws etc. in an effort cut down on single use plastics.

PARKING

There is approximately 100 parking spaces around the building. Street parking is permitted but please stay away from intersections to allow emergency vehicles enough room to pass. The Dalton CRA (located across the street) has graciously offered some space in their lot for overflow parking as well.
