The
Booher Brothers grew up with their five older siblings on a
small farm in beautiful Scotts Valley near Yoncalla in Westen
Oregon. In fact, they and their sister, Meriwyn, were born in
their country home. There was always music in their ears:
"Daddy" on the piano playing Stephen Foster, or on
the accordian,  squeezing out schottishes and polkas; their
older bros working out songs for their four piece band; Rudi
getting up at four in the morning practicing for the fiddle
contests; Mother playing old records of Jim Reeves, Slim
Whitman, Eddy Arnold, Marty Robbins and the Sons of the
Pioneers. Though in '98 the boys settled in Central Oregon,
their roots are planted deep in the soil of their birth, and
they love coming back to the "Home Ranch" to visit
their parents, Mike and Dolores Booher, for hair cuts and
Mom's home cooking!
From
1993 through 1998, Ben, Brendan & Gabe Booher traveled
with their parents and siblings, booked as "The Booher
Family." They toured the U.S., Canada, and Europe,
performing at fairs, festivals and various other venues, with
their signature approach to a broad variety of American music.
For six years ('98-2004), the boys performed regularly with
their sister Meriwyn at their family-owned and operated
"Diamond B Chuckwagon," a cowboy supper and western
show in Central Oregon. Blending traditional tunes with
gospel, swing & cowboy, the Boohers have played before
audiences as distinguished as the president of the U.S., and
on the critically acclaimed radio program, the Prairie Home
Companion.
With
their five older siblings married and raising families of
their own, the three youngest of the Booher family, Ben,
Brendan & Gabe, now booked as The Booher Brothers,
continue the family's tradition with their unique program of
Americana. This strikingly handsome sibling trio, with their
strong harmonies accented by superb musicianship, are
perennial favorites to audiences large and small, and
consistently offer up a complete, family friendly
entertainment experience.
