Lowlek are an Alternative-Funk collective from Cork City. Although a recent addition to the music scene they have cut their musical teeth with various bands over the last few years, as such their musical influences are as diverse and eclectic as their sound. They pride themselves on the unique visual style of the band, tied in heavily with both their mascot and on-stage theatrics. In their short time in existence they have launched their first single, played Castlepalooza to great critical reception, and claimed the title of the UCC 2013 battle Of The Bands. Lowlek have just recorded their first EP. The band call themselves an ‘Alternative-Funk collective’ they indeed rocked us but more so with their psychedelic grunge that has a seriously 70’s funk edge…they left the stage with their swanky spacey sound swimming around our heads. If alt-funk with a psychedelic edge is your thing go follow Lowlek. Dublin Concerts Lowlek reveal that they’ve only recently formed, but you could certainly never tell from this assured performance. Playing a classic rock style of music, the band are charismatic and confident. With varied instrument use, including a chunky, retro sounding synth and a trumpet, the act’s foot-tapping songs are delivered with a charismatic assurance that is a pleasure to watch as well as listen too; Sick Sight is the unquestionable highlight.
