NXNE Song Of The Day: Low – So Blue

Posted on
9 Jun 2014
by
Paul

After 20 years or so, we’ve more or less come to know what to expect from Low – spare, contemplative tunes centred around the harmonies of Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker. Yet even after all these years the Duluth band still has a few tricks up their sleeves and can still surprise, especially in a live festival setting where the audience might possibly be treated to a Rihanna cover or even a nearly 30 minute, drone-based, one song set. This is not to say that they’re likely to go all Spinal Tap Mark II during their set at The Horseshoe for NXNE, but you never know. To be honest, a small part of me hopes that they do.

What we do know is that Low are touring behind their Jeff Tweedy produced The Invisible Way, released last year. Have a listen to “So Blue” off of that very album.

Low plays The Horseshoe Tavern Wednesday June 18 @ 12am.
