Co-writer of the Zac Brown Band hits, “Colder Weather” & “The Wind”
In Lowrey’s universe, music and a sense of community are inseparable.
He recalls his grandparents taking him to jam sessions every Friday night at the “Chicken House” on GidTanner’s farm. It was just that—a converted chicken house—in which local musicians gathered for joy, relief, and companionship.
“That was the beginning of music,” he says. “Before you had records being sold and the commercialization of music, it was primarily a get-together. That was the reason for it. It always belonged in a community. I feel we’ve lost sight of that. Now it’s about record sales and touring and concerts and things of that nature. I don’t get quite as much fulfillment from that as I do sitting around on the front porch playing with a bunch of guys.”
