Sounds Like
'In another outfit, you'd be the classiest dame at the opera.'
Lindsay Appel is me, Lindsay Appel (vocals/keys/guitar), and two splendid fellows, Mario Colangelo (tiger!tiger!) on drums and Steve McPeeks (Fiend Without a Face) on upright bass.
After spending a few years gallivanting around the north & south east following artistic whims, I've taken up residence in Atlanta, GA. I played solo around town until March 2008, when the band got a'rolling.
As far as sound goes, my blend seems to be rather hard for folks to pin down. In my mind, it's a sultry mix of pop/rock/blues, with a healthy dose of shimmer and *spark*, throw in a dash of cinematic flair + a whole lot of sassafras, and on some sort of primitive level of definition, that equals the music that I write. When the charming likes of Mario & Steve are added in, the songs motivate foot tappers and hip shakers, I get to stomp around on bigger stages, and the whole shebang gravitates closer to the perpetual music video 'parade march' I've got playing in my head. All in all, a splendid good time!
"Down, Down, Down"
>New video!Silly video for a new song. Part of my halloween costume from 4th grade even makes an appearance.

I do always keep track of you cause you are Local, but Thank you for the reminder, I sometimes have problems with adding musicians to my calendar so I just added it manually for all to see...
Do not worry one of these days..and it's free...what a great deal. I do Love listening to new artist...and I am starting a new promotion on my status bar...Musicians that I want to help..because of their talent...so when you see your name up there you will go high on the top 40. I just thought of it as a great idea.

After pre-release tours in Colorado and Georgia, Dehlia Low’s new full-length cd “Tellico” will be presented for the first time in Asheville this Thursday at the Grey Eagle ($8/10, thegreyeagle.com)! Several cuts off the new disk can be heard on at www.myspace.com/dehlialow and live takes of a few of the songs will be performed Thursday afternoon on WNCW 88.7FM. Thursday night’s show will also be a chance for those of you who didn’t make it to Merlefest to hear Lyons, Colorado’s own Spring Creek Bluegrass Band, who are also preparing to release a new disk next month. Dehlia Low will also be joined by “Tellico” producer Jon Stickley of the Shannon Whitworth band. We hope to see you out and thanks for supporting live, original, and local music.
