The Lowlifes
Birmingham-UK
are a rock band from Birmingham. Its that straightforward no gimmicks, no irony, and not a single designer mullet in sight. For us, music should be fun, and fun is what the Lowlifes live for.
Mickey and Bren share the vocals with their own style and write absolute footstompers alike to nothing... Jon pounds the drums like a debt collector extracting money from a cowering victim, and dirty phil provides first class attitude and a touch of dirt to the guitar line up...
We formed in November 2005, wrote and recorded our first EP by March 2006... Wrote, and recorded a self financed album and launched it at the barfly in May 2007 to a packed and electric crowd.
The lowlifes music stems from a vast, vast, vast, vast, vast range of
influences, throwing everything into the metaphorical pot from classic rock,
metal, punk well you get the idea. A shared love of bands such as Thin
Lizzy, Metallica, AC/DC, Rage Against the Machine, Led Zepp, Soundgarden and
the like merges into a raw musical jelly that is refined to the point of sexy
by the four participants.
In short, The Lowlifes are a bunch of sexy bastards.
But records only give you half the story. You need to see us live. Period
