Ian Lowery

Born 1956
Died 2001
Ian Paul Lowery was born on March 27, 1956 in Hartlepool in the North-East of England.
He formed and fronted many bands during a long and prolific musical career, gaining critical acclaim both within and outside the industry. Many claim that his music deserved and is still deserving of a much wider audience.
A well-honed gutter poet since the early days of punk, Ian developed an idiosyncratic style, fusing a natural gift for sly wordplay and a well-turned snarky phrase with his often vitriolic and poignant lyrics channelled through an explosive onstage persona. All of which gained him a loyal following throughout his tragically short musical life.
