The Sons of Clogger
The band name Sons of Clogger, came from the father and son element in the band, Neil Owen, the father and David Owen, the son. Traditionally, the Owens had 3 generations of Master shoe boot and clog makers, dating back to the 19th century . The last being known locally as "Clogger Owen", hence the bands name,
SONS OF CLOGGER!
The Owen family have been know for their music and street performing as far back as 1895, and the love to perform stems back to their Irish and Welsh ancestry.
They were also known for being big characters and still are today. Even though the family is in smaller numbers these days, at the end of any festival, everyone certainly knows who they are, with their self-penned trad folk rock, tomfoolery and stories at the bar.
the Owens legacy lives on.
