The new EP which features 4 tracks from the forthcoming Hitchcock Cafe by London-born Jeff Lowe is a thoroughly enjoyable listen and insight into the mind of the singer, song writer and former session musician.
The poignant and classic songcraft that evokes the folk and dusty americana of John Prine, Gram Parsons and in places Mark Knopfler, is a breath of fresh air from the run of the mill bands you tend to hear day by day. In the same way Ryan Adams has made good with the retrospective, Jeff Lowe does the same. With a sound that could permeate any of the last four decades with equal grace, A Travesty Of Justice, in particular, would be at home on either side of the Atlantic.
I await the album out later this year. For more information check out www.jefflowemusic.com and the record is released through his own record company Heartquake Records.
