Guelph, ON's Lowlands sound like they could be from the American deep South rather than the Southwestern Ontario university town they call home. This is owing to the high-register, distinctively sublime drawl of Gordon Auld's vocals. Their latest record, Erie, produced by Gavin Gardiner of the Wooden Sky, is the dark Americana/roots quintet's second in a series of five albums named after Great Lakes, the first of which was Huron.
