The Lowly Knights are not your average folk rock outfit. With twelve people on stage including a choir and an ever-expanding array of instruments, The Knights are fast becoming a small, musical village, more than worthy of their own postcode.
Championing a truly unique sound, which manages to combine the grand-voiced exuberance of Arcade Fire, Polyphonic Spree and Sufjan Stevens with a genuine shipyard sensibility, The Lowly Knights have more than earned their place in Belfast’s strong tradition of literate, folk pop.
Insightful lyrics tackling faith, hope, love and the gut-wrenching doubts which bind them all together, are coupled with gorgeous harmonies, soaring strings and the kind of melodies that keep you humming for weeks.

Last year’s “Rifles E.P.” (available on i-tunes and My Space,) has already sold out and gone to reprint, proving not only The Lowly Knight’s ongoing popularity, both in Northern Ireland and beyond, but also the band’s almost meteoric rise from part-time performers to darlings of the Belfast music scene.
