The Lowlands

Featured May 15 – Jun 16, 2006

The Lowlands began more than a year ago with two brothers, Caleb and Kyle Caudle, both singers and songwriters. Recently, Jason Blankenship and Joe Russell have joined the band, adding layers of electric guitar and percussion. With such diverse backgrounds, influences of the band range from Gram Parsons, Codeseven, Neil Young, Explosions in the Sky, Johnny Cash, The Appleseed Cast, and many other musicians. The Lowlands recently recorded their first EP in Winston Salem, North Carolina, and each of the seven songs are filled with energy and honesty. With plans to tour North Carolina and surrounding areas along the East Coast throughout the summer and autumn months, it is going to be an exciting year for the band.
