A film about dreaming big…

Christy Tengs Fowler was born and raised in Haines, Alaska, and from the time she could talk she was writing poems, stories, and songs. This love of music led her to Berkelee College of Music, where she received a BFA in Audio Engineering. She was poised to start her career as a staff songwriter at CBS in Nashville, when her father, Marty Tengs, called her back to Haines to run the family business, The Bamboo Room and Pioneer Bar. The plan was to stay for three years and save up enough to head back down to Tennessee. Three years turned into thirty before she knew it. She married, Marty passed away, and now Christy is running, and living, above the restaurant with her family. Real life has taken over, but the dream of being a songwriter never left her.
