Singer-songwriter that started out in the early 70s. His music combined personal and social commentary of the day. Signed to Alberts he released his first album 'Survival's a Song' in 1973. The session players on this album were a who's who of Aussie music. Dave Ellis on bass, Russell Dunlop and Laurie Pryor on drums, Dave Donovan and Mark Punch on guitars just to name a few. A single was lifted off the album ''Survival's A Song / Town Of Fear'' but it failed to chart. He next appeared on the album 'Terry & Frankie - A Folk Ballad Rock Opera' with Jeannie Lewis, John Wood and Ian McDougall. His second album 'Mouthmusic' was recorded in Melbourne on the Jambone label in 1975 and has since made the Top 100 Australian Albums as judged by music writers John O'Donnell, Toby Creswell and Craig Mathieson, in their published book The Best 100 Australian Albums. Graham Lowndes, now lives in Fremantle, and despite health problems, is still singing brilliantly.
