Description: This is a cover of John Lennon's Beautiful Boy we did for a family member's wedding (Caitlin and Brian!) for the father-daughter dance.

cool song i'm playing it this weekend at a party

Is there anyway I can get an mp3 version for my wedding? My dad and I would love to dance to this and would love to have your permission to do so.

I would love to get an MP3 of this cover.  I have a friend who recently lost her daughter and I'm putting together a mixed CD for her -- would love to include this if possible.

A very special thanks to Mr. Charles (Uncle Chip) Ficyk for all the time he spent playing and mixing this song.  At time I sound pretty fair...well maybe not.

Beautiful Girl (Cover of Lennon's Beautiful Boy)

A bad song, even played well, is still a bad song.  But a good song played well is always good and that’s what the lowlies do best.  Here is a band that goes to a new place musically.  Let’s call it the Twilight Zone of sound.  The band’s songs deal with everything from the ridiculous to the sublime, silly to serious. For example, “Marilyn” recalls Pee Wee Herman’s arrest while masturbating to a Marilyn Chambers movie.  “Drown” explores the regret of things that go unsaid till it’s too late.  “Dead Man Too” tells of a zombie who wishes he were dead (really dead).  “Murder Machine” is the theme song to the soon-to-be –released Twisted Spine Productions’ horror film.  Hardly standard fare.

the lowlies carry you away on a guided discovery, a trip if you will, into their lyrical visions of sci-fi, horror and slices of life.  There are no poser antics or artificial contrivances in this music.  It’s a genuine potent elixir of sound distilled from the bizarre communal mind pool of three band members.  With strong instrumental skill and solid vocals (even harmonies) combined with extraordinary songwriting talent these guys make every song stick in your head like gunk in a bong.  These are songs with real melodies.  You find yourself humming the tunes absent-mindedly while standing in the checkout line. (Singing “Dead Man Too” in the showers at the gym might be a mistake though). And there’s a hook! No kidding!  Imagine songs with a chorus, verse and a bridge!  That’s rare as hell these days and mighty refreshing.

It would be unfair to try to make any comparison of this band with anything you’ve ever heard. I’m not copping out; it’s just a fact. The list of their musical influences would be absurdly long.   the lowlies’ choice of subject matter and melodic structure sets them apart from the contemporary mainstream and their forebears.  It’s a new flavor.  And you’ll like it!
