"Cruel to be Kind" @
Flamingo Cantina (10/19/2006)

This show was "The Perfect Storm." Double-booked, guitar string broken on its 3rd STRUM, our set cut-short, rampant onstage chaos. Still, this remarkably coherent video was captured by The Falconer :

Has anyone ever questioned whether or not Brent Lyles is The Man?

About Nick Lowe:

Nick Lowe is best known for "Cruel To Be Kind," a moderate hit in the mid-1980's. But for those who know a bit of music history, The Jesus of Cool's influence is surprisingly deep and wide. He produced Elvis Costello's first few albums. He and Dave Edmunds were the bad-boy genius pubrockers of Rockpile. He was Johnny Cash's son-in-law. He formed the supergroup Little Village with John Hiatt, Ry Cooder, and Jim Keltner. He released a zillion solo albums, all of which include amazing pop masterpieces.

Nick Lowe has touched a million small corners of the music universe, and this band, The Lowelies, offers you lovingly chosen selections from that universe. What do we sound like?

Think: "Cruel to Be Kind"

Think: "(What's So Funny 'bout) Peace, Love & Understanding"

Think: "I Knew the Bride (When She Used to Rock 'n' Roll)"

Think: I'd better get my ass to see this band!
