Starting off powerfully with a tale of murder and violence, ‘Mark of Cain’, Steve Obern’s menacing growl contrasted with Michelle Davidson’s sweet but powerful voice – think Nick Cave’s duet with Kylie Minogue ‘Where the Wild Roses Grow’, only with better voices and more sinister – before a climax which saw the eight piece band combine in a relentless driving sound that suited the song’s brutal theme.” Editor – Inverness Courier.
Formed in Inverness during 2004 Lowtide Revelry have grown into a sophisticated folk-influenced band with haunting lyrics and mass band melodies.
Lowtide Revelry have released their self-titled debut album which is available to download at www.scotloads.co.uk and is described as
“a stunning debut from a local line-up which has come a long way in a short time… a listen to this album is an intense, unsettling experience that takes you to darker places than you ever dreamed existed.”
This summer has seen Lowtide Revelry perform at Rockness and Belladrum music festivals, The Ironworks, Sterio, Caberet Voltaire and Hootanannys. The band have also been writing and a rummor of recording a new CD is in the air.
