'Nashville' star Clare Bowen on country music, perfecting her drawl, and that pesky love triangle -- VIDEO
You wouldn’t know it from watching the show, but Nashville star Clare Bowen’s drawl is pure practice. The Australia native, who plays waitress-slash-reluctant-singer/songwriter Scarlett O’Connor on the show, tells EW that her father used to bring home movies like Song of the South and Fried Green Tomatoes when she was growing up, and she had a good ear for the country sound. “It’s always been my favorite accent,” she says.
Bowen also talks about Scarlett’s ongoing drama in her relationships with writing partner Gunner (U.K. native Sam Palladio) and her boyfriend on the show, Avery (Jonathan Jackson). But clearly, the drama stays on TV: It was also just announced that Bowen will join Palladio for a Grand Ole Opry concert at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium this weekend.
Find out more about the impending love triangle on Nashville, and more on Bowen’s singing background in the video below!
