Overview

Jez Lowe and The Bad Pennies have been playing their songs and music of Northern England for a decade and a half around the festivals and concert stages of the world.

“Acoustic simplicity coupled with electric vitality” was how they were described in their early days, and with half a dozen albums to their credit, along with solo albums by Jez and by other members of the group, their following has continued to increase.

They have played in America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Holland, Belgium and, of course, all over the UK and Ireland.

Strong vocals, backed by outstanding instrumental back-up on guitar, cittern, fiddle, fretless bass, keyboards and Northumbrian Pipes, have made them one of Britain’s top attractions on the folk/acoustic circuit.
