After years of success in the world of neo-classical music with his band Balmorhea, RG Lowe took an artistic sharp turn leading to his soulful 2017 debut, 'Slow Time', which Stereogum called "impossibly smooth." Three years later, Lowe returns with 'Life Of The Body', produced by David Boyle, known for his work with Glen Hansard, Patty Griffin, and Okkervil River. This wide-angle collection of songs invites us to reconnect with ourselves and our world through the senses by illuminating our intrinsic connection with the physical world, and the freedom found therein. Echoing the ardor of Walt Whitman's 'Leaves Of Grass', and channeling Talk Talk's Mark Hollis, Lowe asks us each to "feel the wind blow on your face, camerado."
