About Nick Foltz
Nick Foltz is the singer/songwriter for Portland band Lowlight. Their first show together was the release show for the album "After Sundown" at the venerable SE Portland music sanctuary known as The Barn. Since then they have enjoyed a warm reception throughout Portland and the Pacific Northwest .Their sound is loose. It swings and stumbles and is built around the idea that the groove and the lyrics should both drive the song.

Earle's ties to Midwestern folk and gospel traditions are interwoven with the soulful and verdant hues of the Northwest.
