His own music draws from this wide background but for the most part incorporates blues, jazz, rock, pop, and classical modalities. He is a multi-talented composer, arranger and songwriter.

As well as touring as a guitarist worldwide, he was an in-house session player and played on numerous records at Trident studios in London. Since then has written music for TV, Film and Theatre. Co-produced with Simon Townshend on many studio projects; working with Ben Townshend, Mark Brzezicki, Zak Starkey and Lyndsay King as well as touring with the Simon Townshend Band playing guitar and bass.

Review Extract – “The guitar is nimble with its growlings, belting out riffs capable of searing paint from walls, then issuing delicate strumming designed to instil a heavenly dreamstate. Whether displaying intensity or delicacy, Lowe shows a remarkable mastery not only of the instrument but to the diverse emotional potential inherent in both sonic directions.”
