WHO ARE THESE LOWELL TRIO MEMBERS?
JOHN LOWELLJohn Lowell has been performing in the Mountain West for more than 40 years. He’s toured the world with his bands Kane’s River, Wheelhoss, Deep River, Growling Old Men, and the John Lowell Band. John is a triple threat – songwriter, singer and guitarist, and his smooth voice is featured on many albums.
His most recent recording, “She’s Leaving Cheyenne” was nominated for four awards by the International Western Music Association and won “Working Cowboy Song of the Year” for his song “Angus Mackenzie.” The song features a melancholy and regretful Scotsman who sees being a cowboy isn’t all it was cracked up to be. Lowell spent some of his early years in Montana as a working cowboy and has a love of stories about the American West.
He was just awarded second place in the IWMA Songwriting Contest for his song, “Old Pard.” Lowell was nominated twice in the Song category in 2022, as well as nominations for Songwriter of the Year and Album of the Year. “She’s Leaving Cheyenne” was released late in 2021 and was named Album of the Year by Wyoming Public Radio. 2021 also brought Lowell the Grand Prize in the Hazel Dickens Songwriting Contest. His album has been in the top ten of the Western Chart for over 22 months.
John Lowell teaches at the UK Sore Fingers camp and the Montana Fiddle Camp and at festivals in the US and Europe.
He did his ninth European tour in September.
