Nick Lowe is an English singer-songwriter, musician, and producer. Born on March 24, 1949 in Walton-On-Thames, England, UK. He has had a successful career spanning several decades. From 1979 to 1990 he was married to Carlene Carter and is currently married to Peta Waddington.

With his unique blend of rock and pop music, Nick Lowe has become a highly influential figure in the industry. His sound is often compared to artists such as Rockpile, Graham Parker, Brinsley Schwarz, and Dave Edmunds.

Throughout his career, Nick Lowe has collaborated with many talented musicians including Elvis Costello & The Attractions and Richard & Linda Thompson. His contributions to the music world have earned him a dedicated fan base and critical acclaim.

2008 marks the 30th anniversary of Nick Lowe's seminal 1978 album Jesus of Cool. The album, released in the U.S. as Pure Pop for Now People, marks the beginning of one of the most storied and influential solo careers in pop music and marks the true emergence of a songwriting monolith. The album is a literal compendium of 25 years of pop music history. Here, the sweet melodies of pre-Beatles pop, the energy of the British Invasion, the excess of glam and elements of ska and new wave don t blend but stand side by side on the field of battle, each one willing to lay down his life for the other. Jesus is the crossroads where pop music and pop culture collide, self-aware for the first time, fusing into a white hot chunk of rock n roll energy.
