Ow is a Belgian band (Antwerp) created in late 2001 when drummer Chris Wauters and guitarist Thomas Noppe (Gore Slut, i-H8 Camera) met bass player Stefan Vanderstappen.
A few months later, multi-instrumentalist Elko Blijweert (Kiss My Jazz, Dead Man Ray, The Rudy Trouvé Septet, etc.) joined the band. In 2003 Stefan Vanderstappen left and Jan Stoop replaced him on bass.

Ow's music is instrumental, sometimes happy, often hard and sad.
