LADY LOW wash away their blues with their video for Rainy Day
Los Angeles, CA) – March 24, 2015
The MuseBox today announced the digital release of Rainy Day, the new record from Hollywood’s favorite romance rockers, Lady Low. Described as “where strings and heartstrings collide,” “Rainy Day” is one side of a double A-side record, with the other single being a cover of Buzzcocks' "You Say You Don't Love Me."
Lady
Low is a rock quintet comprised of Jimmy Sweet (vocals, guitar), Rachel
Maxann (vocals, synth, bass), Eden Lee (vocals, drums), Kaitlin Wolfberg (violin) and Hannah Blumenfeld (violin).
Sweet had always wanted to start a band that combined love’s passion
and old school rock and roll. After returning to L.A. by way of London,
he formed Lady Low. Maxann found her way to the City of Angels after
growing restless in the Big Easy. She brought aboard her old friend Lee,
and after enlisting the help of local string talents Wolfberg and
Blumenfield, the world’s first romance rock group was born.
Lady
Low is not the first musical expedition for these romance rock
pioneers. Jimmy has been rocking for years, starting out with legendary
San Francisco rock band, The Richmond Sluts. He still performs with the
Goodtime Boys, a ‘70s cover band, along with members of Hot Hot Heat,
Fleet Foxes, The Heavy, and Beachwood Sparks.
The
romance side of Lady Low’s signature sound comes from the strings, for
which Wolfberg and Blumenfeld are responsible. The string arrangements
are written by Wolfberg, who also plays violin, viola, and keyboard. She
has worked with indie legends The Bats and The DB’s, and has played
with heavy hitters such as Dweezil Zappa and Ruthann Friedman.
Blumenfeld
is also an established cellist and bassist. She recorded strings with
famed producer Adrian Younge on albums by legends such as The Delfonics,
Ghostface Killah, and Souls of Mischief. Blumenfeld is part of other
local acts such as Exorcisms, White Murder, and Jail Weddings.
Buzzcocks are an English punk rock band, formed in Bolton in 1976 by singer-songwriter and guitarist Pete Shelley and singer-songwriter Howard Devoto. They are regarded as an important influence on the Manchester music scene, punk rock, power pop, and indie rock.
Buzzcocks achieved commercial success with singles that fused pop
craftsmanship with the rapid-fire punk energy of bands such as The Sex
Pistols.
