It’s November, it’s Sunday night and it’s raining out there and I’m taking a trip down memory lane.

One magic weekend in March 2005, we got together to record a track for a Gourds Tribute record. With one microphone, a lot of red wine and not a clue, we rehearsed and recorded this track in an old abandoned monastery cell.

Without even knowing it…our band was born.

This recording meant so much to us that we named our band after it.

The original line up was: Edward Abbiati: acoustic guitar and vocals - Simone Fratti: double bass - Stefano Speroni: acoustic guitar - Giovanni "John" Novara: drums - Simone "John" Prunetti: electric guitars.

Our main man, Stefano Speroni recorded and mixed this pretty much on the spot and ..Simone Fratti.. took most of the pictures you’ll see on the slide show of that weekend.

In spring 2009 we re-recorded this track, with the current line-up for our new CD "EP VOL.1". Check it out on: www.myspace.com/lowlandsband

This one goes out with gratitude to all past ..LOWLANDS.. members and to our friend Bruce Davis for giving us the spark.

Hope you enjoy it. I’m still proud of this lil’one!

Ciao

Edward
