Oh Love
WHAT’S THE WORST THAT CAN HAPPEN
WANT YOU BACK WITH ME
LOu kyme
Lou Kyme, singer, songwriter, lead guitarist.
After growing up in Southampton, England singing and playing accordion in her family band the Okeh Wranglers, releasing 6 albums and touring across Europe and the US, Lou has now stepped into her own sound.
With her debut album ‘What’s The Worst That Can Happen’, recorded in San Francisco with Chuck Prophet and the Mission Express to much acclaim across the UK and Europe, Lou is now actively connecting with her audiences.
Inspired by old time country, blues, rockabilly, Lou injects a modern point of view into her songwriting, and grit into her guitar playing. With a smile on her face and an exuberant live show, Lou Kyme is one to look out for.
“A startling, box-fresh sounding debut album. It’s all rockabilly twang, Stax-inflected country-soul and an energy that’s vivacious and engaging. There’s barely a second wasted; it sparkles, it surges, it breaks your heart and then rebuilds it with a sun-kissed disposition that’s impossible to ignore.”
