Three-time San Diego Music Award winner Low Volts is giving the music world a much needed shock to the heart. With his fuzzed-out, one-man, dirty blues-rock 'n' soul performances, Tim Lowman creates a thick and swampy sound equivalent to the force of a four-piece band. Having performed to a sold-out crowd at The Ryman, nationally touring with Brian Setzer, and landing songs in the smash comedy Super Troopers 2 alongside Eagles of Death Metal, Low Volts is on a steady path of rock and roll righteousness.
