Crystal Bowersox
Healing through Music
Tuesday, September 14 - 7 PM
Portage HS East Aud.
American Idol Runner-Up Crystal Bowersox is now a singer
songwriter with a passion for healing people through music. Her
love for music developed at an early age from her need to find
peace in a chaotic world. Through art and creation, music has
always been her most effective form of catharsis. Ultimately,
Bowersox auditioned for the ninth season of American Idol.
Crystal’s time on the show proved to be well spent, as she
immediately left the soundstage for the recording studio in
2010, releasing her debut album, “Farmer’s Daughter” on Jive
Records. Since her introduction to the world, Crystal has
released 3 LPs. Additionally, she has used her voice and
talents to benefit several causes close to her heart, and has
become an inspiration and advocate for people living with Type
1 Diabetes.
