Hello, I'm Lou, primarily known as a vocalist but I also dabble with guitar, keys, production & other bits & bobs. I have been performing since my teens when, amongst other things, I busked the streets with my saxophone to make a living.
Current Projects:
I sing with The Blendaholics under the name of Lou Amour. Some of the songs on my player will be released on Venus, their debut album, out soon!
I'm also writing new songs for a bluesy-old time-lilt project with Pete Moody (Superkings) as well as working with Kid Cholera, a producer & musician based in Dallas, US.
You can hear some of my solo dabblings over here. I assure you they're evolving!
