The Brought Low

About Me

New York City’s Brought Low come on like a boogie rock ‘Wild Bunch,’ clothes sullied with the dirt of a thousand dive bars, dead-eyed from the after show parties and all night drives, as turbulent and unassailable as the city that birthed them. They're journeymen musicians who walk with the gait of the blues, rock and country pioneers who preceded them and whose influence they wear on their tattered sleeves. Their music is rooted in the vintage hard rock of The Stones, Who and Humble Pie, tempered with the cadences of guys with names like Sonny Boy and Hank, and delivered with the boisterous zeal of a Big Apple street choir.
