The Sweet Lowdown
Nominated by the Canadian Folk Music Awards as Vocal Group of the Year 2013, The Sweet Lowdown blend original songwriting and three-part harmonies with an old-time instrumental groove. This award-winning acoustic roots trio from Victoria, B.C. creates a unique yet timeless sound that takes listeners on a pleasurable and memorable journey.
Drawn together by mutual passion for old-time music, hard-driving bluegrass, sweet harmonies and well-wrought songs, The Sweet Lowdown (Amanda Blied on guitar, Shanti Bremer on banjo and fiddler Miriam Sonstenes) pays homage to their musical roots while simultaneously breaking new ground. Each member contributes to the band’s original repertoire and each has a unique vocal flair as well as impressive instrumental chops.
Winners of the 2013 Island Roots Album of the Year Award (Vancouver Island Music Awards) and nominated for several other awards last year, The Sweet Lowdown has the ability to play to, draw in, and excite a diverse audience – young and old, lovers of traditional music as well as those discovering it for the first time.
