Lowland Brothers

rock / soul

The French group consolidates its soul, rock and Americana roots in a liberating and timeless second album.

In 2021, Lowland Brothers, the first self-titled album from the group led by Nico Duportal (vocals, guitars, lyrics), Hugo Deviers (percussion, guitar, lyrics) and Max Genouel (bass, keyboards) built a unique transatlantic bridge between soul, rock and the woody sounds of Americana. “We have affinities with the African-American musical landscape, but our desire is to transport this baggage and take it elsewhere,” specifies the group from the West and North of France.
