Rooted in jazz. Grown on stage.

Lowell cut his teeth on jazz — walking lines, standards and the discipline of listening. Over time the rooms got bigger: contemporary rock, blues, pop, and two decades as bassist on the worship team at Christian Revival Church (CRC) across Bloemfontein, Johannesburg and Pretoria.

Today he teaches what the stage taught him: great bass playing is less about more notes, and more about feel, pocket and tone.
