   About Lowell Thompson
"It's country. From the north country." (NYLON MAGAZINE) "Burlington's own version of Springsteen." (PERFORMER MAGAZINE) “One of Vermont’s most prominent young musicians, Lowell creates Americana music with echoes of Gram Parsons and Neil Young infused with his own modern style. Likely to be covered on No Depression Magazine…..” (BURLINGTON FREE PRESS) "Over the years, he has crafted a shimmering, high-lonesome sound rooted in classic 1970s country-rock, peppered with healthy nods to modern torchbearers such as The Jayhawks and Old 97’s. Whiskey is highly recommended." (SEVEN DAYS)

Hey Lowell,

Just wanted to stop by your page, it's been awhile. What's new with you?

I just finished recording my 3rd release, Perfekt World, with an album release party on March 26th at Crash Mansion! Doors at 7 PM. I will also be at the Blender Theater at gramercy this Saturday night with Emerson Hart (from Tonic).

Stop by my page then and check out the new music. I would love to know what you think.

Best,

CL
