Pretty Maggie and Jackie stewarts reel (The Dead Cow)

Mañana, quiero decir, lo simple está en el vivir.
Despierta pequeño sentir, no borres lo que te hizo surgir.

Mañana quiero dejar, mi cuerpo al despertar.
Susurra alma de atrás, como el rojo que busca su verde mar.

Mañana van a explotar, los cambios quebrantes en el cristal.
Visítame alma de allá, si todo despierta nos unimos a cantar.
Ah ah ah ah ah.

Nigel Eaton's Halsway Schottische played by Ian Gelston and Anthony Black.

Halsway Schottische

Lowp are a 4 piece band specialising in the songs and music of Tyneside and North East England, but also venturing into the wider musical territory of Scotland, Ireland and beyond.

THE PLAYERS 
Ben Hudson: vocals, guitar, bouzouki 
Steve Pratt: flute & whistles 
Pete Brown: fiddle 
Iain Gelston: border & small pipes, bouzouki & mandolin

Contact: tradition@blueyonder.co.uk

The band’s material is a mix of native and imported tradition, so alongside the sounds of 18thC border and smallpipe tunes you might hear the whistle and flute of the Tyneside Irish tradition, or the Scottish songs that have become firmly established on the banks of the river, or the songs of the 19thC Music Hall tradition. Pete’s fiddle adds more of the Border/Northumbrian sound. In addition, the band write their own tunes and songs, and also present their take on more contemporary, tradition-based material by the likes of local songsmith Ed Pickford and Sunderland based luthier Tony Black. Add to this the occasional foray over the water to Brittany and France to raid the odd tune set, resulting in a wide and varied sound pallette, but with all given the distinctive Tyneside/Lowp stamp.

Ex Lowp member Sheena McCaffrey provided the excellent accordion on the tracks here. We are currently on the look out for a new accordion/box player.
