Entertainment - Memphis, Tennessee, United States
Mandy Lemons, winner of the 2015 Emissaries of Memphis Music Peoples Choice Award, and Sturgis Nikides, who recorded and toured with Rock & Roll Hall Of Famer, John Cale (of The Velvet Underground) - aka/Low Society - are blazing new trails on the stomping grounds of Blues Roots and Americana music. Texas Blues, Memphis Rock 'N Soul and a healthy dose of New York attitude help define the sound and spirit of their music. Their albums have received critical acclaim from around the world, as well as numerous Best Of lists, placing on the Roots Music Report Top 50 Blues Albums Charts & Top 50 Blues-Rock Albums Charts, as well as the prestigious Living Blues Magazine Top 25 Radio Chart. Sirius XM's B.B. King's Bluesville has had Low Society in heavy rotation since the beginning of 2015, starting with their second album 'You Can't Keep A Good Woman Down', and continuing now with their third and latest release, 'Sanctified'. C Michael Bailey from AllAboutJazz.com said: "...Lemons is a tornadic force of nature laying waste to all of the blues-rock produced since the 1960s...This band, following its mistress Lemons' lead, is a feral and untethered spirit that makes its musical statement like the basement door slamming in the dark, off its hinges". Anna Warkentin from American Blues Scene said:"Low Society's Sanctified is a Modern Blues Masterpiece. The talented team behind this album poured their heart and soul into every track, and it shows in the loving production, meaningful lyrics, and inspired performances..." Just back to Memphis from their barnstorming 4th European tour, Low Society has appeared at Clarksdale Mississippi's Juke Joint Festival 5 times, the Bona Fide Blues Festival, the Winchester Blues House Festival, the 2012 BluesAlive Festival in the Czech Republic & Poland, and Switzerlands prestigious 2015 Lucerne Blues Festival. They appear regularly on Memphis's legendary Beale Street and 2018 will find them playing extensively across the US and Europe.
