Press Quotes
"Black Beings serves as an historical document and stopping-off point in the musical legacy of Lowe, showing a rare side of the musician. " - Jerry D'Souza, All About Jazz
"Essentially just a recording of a live show, Black Beings encapsulates what’s great about improvisation at its very core: harnessing spontaneity in a way that can never be recreated. Aside from stellar, moment-to-moment playing, Black Beings also documents a pivotal time in music. Lowe takes free jazz to its fiercest and rawest states, while remaining deeply invested in the same roots as the previous generation of jazz experimenters. As avant-garde as Black Beings gets, it is indeed pure soul music" - Seth K, Tiny Mix Tapes
