Biography
Throughout much of his time in the music industry, Dan Lowe served as guitarist across multiple groups that issued singles and albums through Mercury, Elektra, and Gaiety. He later took on production duties for various performers, developed the stereo enhancement system known as Q-Sound, and contributed original music to one motion picture.
Lowe launched his recording work in Alberta during 1966 alongside the Shades of Blond. As the decade progressed, personnel shifts prompted a change to the name 49th Parallel. He remained through several tours, one self-titled album, and singles that included "Twilight Woman," "Missouri," "Citizen Freak," "You Do Things," and "Now That I'm a Man."
Early in the 1970s the ensemble operated first as Painter and then as Hammersmith, yielding additional albums under Lowe’s involvement. By 1980 he had joined 451 Degrees, which released a self-titled album before the lineup became Prototype. Among the musicians who shared stages with him in these projects were Doran "Dorn" Beattie, Barry Allen, Dave Downey, Terry Bare, Mick Woodhouse, Dave Petch, Bob "Herb" Ego, Bob Carlson, Jack Velker, and Dennis Mundy.
