DOCTOR BOW (aka Jonathan Wilson) brings back the LOST HERITAGE of the Guitar. He plays eclectic soundscapes on an instrument of his own creation: The TogaMan GuitarViol (Bowed Guitar)which he also custom builds for others @ bowedguitar.com Additionally, he performs (whenever time and mood come together) as a solo act or small ensemble. His music has been described as "Ethereal music that feeds the mind as well as the soul" GUITAR9 or...."background music that GRABS you!"

Story behind the song
"The Rainbow" has a few metaphorical meanings: One is the triad of colors (red, yellow, blue) by which all colors are derived. The other triad is the natural one in music of natural harmonics; most particularly the tonic, major third, and fifth intervals. The other is the Trinity; the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. The Rainbow also symbolizes God's promises; Renewal after the rain. The other "Rainbow" thing going on here is the arch of the bowed guitar bridge (arcuate string plane). The bow has to "travel the rainbow". One or two takes. No overdubs.
