The Last Complete Show

One foot in the past, one foot in the future

About Me

The "original" Last Complete Show was formed in Clinton County, PA in 1980, and played together until the mid nineties. Their strong soaring vocals and instrumentals were their calling cards. Early in 2005, Craig Bowman, an "original member" of Last Complete Show, reformed the group with three new faces added to his and performed at the 2005 Smoked Country Jam. The "new" faces he brought to join him & his upright bass were his son Wyatt on guitar, Ben Wenk on guitar, and John Marryott on fiddle and guitar. They played the final time slot in the 2005 Festival Schedule, exhibiting the promise that a talented young group will show when they have a great leader, like this group had in Craig Bowman.Sadly, Craig left this world in a tragic accident the following January. But he left behind a legacy as a musician, father, husband, and friend. Craig would have wanted the music to go on without him, and that is exactly what has happened.The new performing lineup features Wyatt and Ben. Keep an eye on our performance schedule in the coming months as the boys are anxious to hit the road and debut new (and original) material in the spirit of the music that LCS fans have enjoyed at performances over the years.NOW AVAILABLE!
