The Jen Low Band

About Me

"Although only into the second month of 2009, Jen has already positioned herself as the best female vocalist of the year, it will take someone very very special and talented to take the crown from her" (leeds music promotions).The Jen Low Band mixes soul, jazz, blues and funk with brutally honest lyrics about 'life in the world of Jen' to create their unique sound. The band is now a firm favourite on the Yorkshire music scene with regular appearances at The Wardrobe (Leeds), Fibbers and The Duchess (York) and The Blues Bar (Harrogate) among other venues. They have also featured on both BBC radio York and Leeds and were involved in recent preparations for BBC Leed's comic relief fundraiser.In the last few months the band have enjoyed a number of prestigious gigs supporting 'Aynsley Lister' and the mighty 'Finley Quaye' with more to come this spring including 'Alice Russell'...Currently in the studio finishing off their debut album the band are looking forward to a summer of festivals and new material.
