Bio
Dustin Lowman writes antisensical songs: lyric-driven tunes that deconstruct the nonsense of living. He is a self-taught singer, guitarist, harmonica player, and lyricist who patterns his style on troubadour types — Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Aimee Mann, Adrianne Lenker, Cass McCombs. Based in Brooklyn, Dustin performs regularly at venues in the borough, and has also appeared at the Poetry Foundation in Chicago, IL; The Bitter End in Manhattan, NY; and the Levitt Pavilion in Westport, CT.
Originally from Westport, CT, Dustin began writing creatively in kindergarten. Sympathetic tales about Frankenstein and NFL-bound dragons (yes, really) in grade school gave way to confessional poetry and songs in high school; the latter forms burn as brightly now as they did then.
Dustin’s songs are saturated with both comedy and tragedy: A song entitled “Bankrupt & Crucified” may be his most optimistic, and “Rather Be Right” compares the merits of starting a religion and falling in love. A sadness undercuts every smile; laughing follows nonfatal pain. Such is the duality Dustin’s songs straddle.
