“Rich has one of those relaxed, velvety voices that just commands respect. You have to respect a voice like that.” - BBC Introducing

 

Rich Lown is a singer/songwriter from the south coast of England. Fusing folk and rock with his unique voice Rich Lown is bringing freshness and honesty to music. Much of his music is a moment of catharsis caught in song through an intuitive process of song writing. It’s natural, catchy and comes from within, proving that songs can be popular and still be soulful.

 

Rich has received an increasing number of music accolades over the years with various festivals under his belt, a tour of 15 prestigious venues with MBE and Brit Award nominee Joan Armatrading, finishing in the top 10 in the country for the UK’s biggest unsigned solo artist talent search 'Open Mic UK‘, various talent competition crowns including 'Rock The House' (a competition held by MP's at the houses of parliament), TV and film features including a number of episodes of Hollyoaks, a national song writing finalist, a top 20 iTunes album within his genre, support slots with Boyzone and an 'Unsigned Music Awards' nomination for 'Best Solo Male' in the country's first televised unsigned music awards. Most recently, Rich has championed by artists such as Gavin Rossdale and Hanson after releasing covers of their songs during lockdown, with the latter sharing his version of ‘A Song to Sing’ across their social media channels. The first UK artist to ever be shared by the band. After releasing two versions of a brand new single, Rich is back with aplomb showing off his versatility in some of his strongest work yet and cementing his reputation as one of the UK’s finest independent talents.”
