 Courtesy of the Artist (Brooklyn, NY) Having made a name for themselves in the re-emerging local music scenes in New Jersey, alt-folk band Lowlight are now readying the release of their debut LP, Where Do We Go From Here, out August 26th, 2016.
The initial spark for Lowlight came when Renee Maskin (lead vocals, guitar) and Colin Ryan (drums) came together to record for their now defunct group Seapost. Those sessions were engineered by Derril Sellers (guitar, background vocals) who then brought in his wife Dana Sellers (keyboards, background vocals) to write some new songs after those sessions. The rest, as they say, is history.
