I was around five years old. My mother at the end of the show would make me go on stage and bow to the audience so I could feel what it’s like to have the lights on me, the people cheering and the applause. I remember being so nervous but so happy to be up there. I associated music with beauty, enthusiasm, and passion. In France I was classically trained by an Iranian opera singer who as well as singing Mozart, sang the songs of her homeland and once performed at Burning Man. My first paid gig was actually in a cabaret in Paris with my Dad. I was 13 and we did a father/daughter vaudeville show. I was paid 20 Euros.” “When I moved to LA at the age of 15, my parents introduced me to the late, great blues singer Barbara Morrison. She took me under her wing and taught me a lot about performing the blues. I graduated quickly so I could stop going to school and concentrate on making music with her and her band. At the age of 18 I decided to move to NYC and pursue my dream. I had a choice between going to NYU or performing. I chose performing. When I was 19, I flew my dad out to New York to perform with me again. He told stories about Paris and I sang famous French songs.” A Dolly Lowe show is wild ride, full of unexpected twists and turns. She cites the following as musical influences. “I started listening to really old songs like Fats Waller and Hoagy Carmichael. My dad would play them on the piano in the morning while everyone else was asleep. I just loved how simple a lot of them were… and beautiful and moving. I have a bit of a crazy musical taste. I’ve got my jazz side, my blues side, my Odetta side, but I also have my crazy side – like Pulp, New Order, Pattie Smith, and Iggy Pop.” Catch all sides of Dolly Lowe throughout the winter in New York and LA.
