David Lowery Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

David Lowery 2025 Bio David Lowery is best known as the singer-songwriter and frontman for the two acclaimed bands Cracker and Camper Van Beethoven over the last four decades. He's been revered in leading the charge of the indie-rock movement with the formation of CVB in the early '80s, spawning such absurdist, left-field pop-rock gems as "Take The Skinheads Bowling," "The Day That Lassie Went To The Moon" and "(I Was Born In A) Laundromat," among countless others over the course of their nine studio albums together. After the initial break-up of CVB in 1990 (or as one New York media outlet phrased it "Camper Van Beethoven didn’t explode like Fleetwood Mac when they broke up, they dissolved like a urinal cake"), Lowery hooked up with guitarist and friend Johnny Hickman and formed Cracker - a band that successfully melded rock with country - and proved to be one of the small handful of acts in the early '90s to help spearhead the then burgeoning alt-county scene (grunge rock be damned). Cracker quickly blew up, scoring three Top 10 alternative/rock radio hits, as well as garnering two platinum and two gold albums. They've gone onto release nine studio albums, along with several live and compilation LPs, In addition, Lowery has also produced a number of albums for acclaimed acts such as The Counting Crows and Sparklehorse. He also founded Sound of Music Studios in Richmond, VA with John Morand. This long running endeavor has produced tracks from artists as wide ranging as D’Angelo and Gwar. After all these years both Cracker and CVB are still active, as the former will be hitting the road in support of their recently released album Alternative History: A Cracker Retrospective (a 3-LP vinyl set featuring a collection of re-recordings, demos, outtakes, collaborations, and live tracks that presents an alternate history of the band). And Camper Van Beethoven will be performing two very special 40th Anniversary shows at The Fillmore in San Francisco on April 26th and 27th, 2025, four decades after releasing their genre-bending debut LP Telephone Free Landslide Victory. David will also be releasing his new 28-track solo album Fathers, Sons and Brothers early this summer. This is his musical autobiography, celebrating his youth, family, friends and the highs and lows of his lengthy 40-year career in the music business. This 3-LP vinyl and 2-CD set combines three of David's previously online-only released autobiographical solo albums, In The Shadow of the Bull, Leaving Key Member Clause, and Vending Machine, and also includes four new previously unreleased songs, as well as four newly re-recorded tracks.
