Bio

Let’s face it: Madrid is not exactly the rock and roll capital of the world. The land of flamenco, tapas and bullfights has not produced any major international rock talent. That is, until now.

Born out of a well-oiled funk-rock cover band and the single-minded determination to ignore both geography and rock history, please crank up the volume for…
……..The Low Lahs
It’s like the Ramones playing hooky B-52s tunes in a Coen brothers film. “Yeah, that’s what we’re about. We play seriously happy rock. It’s serious. It’s happy. And it rocks” says half-British co-author and singer Tom Vega. Guitarist and co-writer Eduardo Schmid adds “our music reflects both the differences and similarities in our backgrounds. We both grew up and musically came of age in English-speaking countries, Tom in the UK and I in the States. The result is a happy marriage of American influences and that personal, somewhat British nuance in Tom’s singing”.

Building on up-tempo rhythm grooves and quirky guitar riffs that weave around the melody, The Low Lahs strike a paradoxical balance between raw, post-punk energy and naïve, light-hearted optimism. This is apparent in tunes like The Mushy Room, a celebration of swirly 60s psychedelia, where seemingly flippant lyrics and a spaced out vibe are dished out at rollercoaster pace. Or in Fizz, a rhythmic smorgasbord, a primeval sex fest, courtesy of groovemeisters Mr. W. on bass and Señor Escalona at the skins. This three-song snapshot is wrapped up wit
