About the band:
Lowland Hum recently released their self-titled sophomore album, leading to an onslaught of positive attention from everyone from iTunes and Spotify to NPR Music, who debuted it on their First Listen stream; NPR cited the indie-folk duo as “Benefiting from a freewheeling, beefed-up studio band, the dynamic range of this 13-song set runs from hushed insularity to ardent expansiveness, alighting on dozens of gradations between.”

Popmatters, a publication known for its criticism and analysis of modern media, writes that Lowland Hum is “further evidence of their ability to wield seamless harmonies and a hushed low cast glow.” The same source later featured the first premiere of “Olivia”, upon the duo’s release of the lyric video.
Furthering their ever-growing popularity, the band was just featured on NPR’s World Cafe and Daytrotter, while their single “Odell” first debuted on Earmilk. In addition, the official music video first appeared on Nerdist, who writes that the number is, “…the perfect visual metaphor for Lowland Hum’s atmospheric brand of emotionally intelligent folk.”

In September, the band signed with San Diego based indie label, Randm Records. They will finish out 2015 with shows up and down the east coast.

Combining Daniel’s musicianship and Lauren’s inclinations invisual art, Lowland Hum’s shows are a multi-sensory experience, engaging sight, sound, smell, and touch–inviting listeners to be fully present and reducing the space between artist and listener. During performances, Lowland Hum readily shares the stories behind their songs and invites listeners to offer real-time reflections.
