Performing on Prime Time Country; circa 1995.
I’m often asked, “Did you get stage fright before a concert or performing on live TV?”
“Nope,” would be my answer.
Sure, I got butterflies and cited my “just-don’t-screw-up” mantra, but all-in-all, I thrived in such settings. Honest.
Now ask me the same question in regards to being in my own videos! I’m proud of how they turned out, and I’m eternally grateful to Matt Giesler who donated his talent, but now I’M the focal point (gulp!)
I can’t hide behind my bass and sunglasses!
So here they are. I wanted them to be short, entertaining and informative.

Bass, Tours & Castles
Feel free to share, throw tomatoes, snicker, etc.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve gotta go find my antacid!

About J.E. Lowder
I've played bass for Shania Twain, had a black rhino charge me while on safari, and I've been in the Oval Office. In high school, I went backstage to interview groups like Bob Seger, Rush and Kansas, sorta like "Almost Famous" but without Kate Hudson! As an author, I draw from all these experiences (and then some) when crafting my stories. The quote that sums me up the best is by G.K. Chesterton: "Nay, the really sane man know that he has a touch of the madman."
I'm married, the father of four wonderful children, and a proud grandfather. I currently live near Nashville, TN where I write, bike and am always on the prowl for adventure and stories.

Good stuff Mr. Lowder! Oh that we could all make sense of our story and say yes to what we’re passionate about; letting go of what’s safe and entering into a great adventure for the sake of Christ. Very brave indeed.
