Described as ‘a major talent in any language’, singer-songwriter Lowri Evans is one of Wales’s best kept secret.
This is surely set to change in 2013 with the announcement that accordion player Andy Cutting and renowned acoustic and slide guitarist Martin Simpson – both BBC Radio 2 ‘Folk Award’ winners – have agreed to play on Lowri’s fifth album, due for release this summer.
Blessed with a voice capable of wide emotional power, her songs take their musical colours from a broad palette that includes folk, jazz, country, pop and blues, all beautifully knitted together by her innate musicality and heartfelt delivery.
Not only is Pembrokeshire-born Lowri the purveyor of some beautifully-crafted and evocative songs, she is also a fine guitarist too. Her uber-talented band are the perfect frame for her elegant musical tapestry, but she is equally at ease performing as a solo artist, duo, trio or a four-piece.
