Fallon Bowman is a musician from London, Ontario, Canada, best known for her involvement with Kittie. She is of Dutch and Indonesian descent. Since departing Kittie in 2001, Bowman has worked with Pigface and as a solo artist under the name Amphibious Assault, as well as under her own name.
While on a flight from Ontario to New Jersey, Bowman, then seventeen, was skimming through a Tom Clancy novel when she came upon the term amphibious assault which she thought would be a great name for an industrial band. Soon after, Bowman went on to record several tracks with Pigface for the band's 2003 album, Easy Listening.... Her enjoyment of the recording experience led her to begin writing music again. She purchased a sequencer and began exploring the industrial music genre that she had admired but never actively pursued. In the months that followed, Bowman filled her basement with drum machines and synthesizers and wrote the songs that made up Amphibious Assault's debut album, District Six, released on the Social Unrest label. Bowman's former Kittie bandmate, bassist Talena Atfield, and guitarist Pete Henderson also contributed to the project. Amphibious Assault's second album was completed and originally scheduled for a June, and later, an August 2005 release. The release was postponed on both occasions, largely due to Bowman's school schedule. Her school schedule also caused her to miss her scheduled live appearances with Pigface. On January 10, 2007, Bowman announced via the Amphibious Assault website, that the second album, On Better Days and Sin-Eating, was finally available for purchase. The album was limited to 500 physical copies but was also made available via digital download. She stated that the album would be the last release under the Amphibious Assault name and added that a new project, tentatively named Oh No, Torpedo!, was planned for the future.
Solo artist
Bowman's new project was revealed as Fallon and the Grace Dynasty. The Grace Dynasty was a five piece band that included Rhim of The Birthday Massacre on drums. The band played a series of live shows before announcing their debut album. After recording was completed, the decision was made to drop the band name and release the album under Bowman's name instead. The album, Human Conditional, was released on January 25, 2011. In November 2016, Bowman traveled to Chicago to participate in Pigface's two-night 25th anniversary event. In November 2019, Bowman joined Pigface band once again for one night when its 25th anniversary tour made a stop in Toronto.
Other work
Bowman was the subject of a prank for an episode of the short-lived Animal Planet series Freak Encounters. The episode reveals that she has a degree in archaeology.
