Growing up in the Rockies of Colorado, Betty Elaine Chandler began
formal music training at age 4. Her gift for music led to degrees
in voice and piano. She moved to Utah to find her very talented husband
Brad Owen and from that time until now it's been a song and a
dance…literally! Including acclaimed performances from the West
Coast to the Deep South. Having recently left the lush surrounding of
Northwest Washington , The Owen Family currently finds inspiration from
the surroundings of Southern Utah 's color country where they put their
many talents to use in composing, performing, teaching, directing and
producing their music.
Now Married and parents of five children, Brad and Betty find
their greatest joy and moments come from being parents of and making
home a little bit of heaven.
Brook (18) and Brittany (16) recently graduated from Dixie State
College with
their associate degrees. Bryan (12) will soon be receiving his
Eagle Scout award
and Barbara (5) and Benjamin (3) are enjoying being active and
being home
schooled by their mom.
Every performance of The Brad Owen Family is fun, entertaining,
and full of delightful music. Their enthusiasm engages and involves
their audience right from the start. They have performed at libraries,
schools, community events, fairs and festivals throughout the United
States for over 19 Years.
The Brad Owen family moved to Saint George from Seattle, WA about
5 years ago. They continue to delight audiences everywhere with
their variety show which includes musical selections from their
original compositions along with clogging to tunes everyone will
recognize.
The family has three music Cd's currently available both in local
stores and on the Internet at www.tsbrecord.com < http://www.tsbrecord.com/ >.
Each of these Cd's express a unique and individual style all their
own.
Peace was the first CD the family released in 1997, which is an
original compilation of religious vocal and piano music that can
be enjoyed at the dinner table, or anytime peace is needed.
The next CD, Elaine, was created by a 9 foot Kawaii Grand Piano
and the
delightfully inspiring touch of Betty Owen. Each of the original
songs where
recorded by Spiral Studios here in Saint George to make a perfect
mix of relaxing
new-age music that is used for meditation, relaxation and inspiration.
The Most recent CD */ Owen Family Celtic Christmas/* is a collection
of several traditional Christmas songs and also some original Christmas
songs all
played by the Wooden Tantrum with a Celtic flavor... this is a
great CD for
Christmas (or any other time!).
