"As
a little girl I remember going to some London Clubs with my mother to listen to
my Uncle Johnny playing saxophone with his jazz band. It was fantastic. The groove
of the music stayed with me long after I had gone to bed at the end of the evening!
I also recall watching on television singers like Cleo Laine, Cilla Black, Shirley
Bassey, Dionne Warwick and thinking how do they what they do, with such ease but
with vigor at the same time…" Patricia
Patricia was born and raised in Berkshire, England where her parents had
moved to from Barbados just before her birth.
In 1992 Patricia moved to Italy where
she met pianist Paolo Serazzi, with whom she started her singing career.
At the beginning it was just for fun but later she took it more seriously when she
realised that she had a special gift to share. Since then she has studied music
with some distinguished singers/teachers from both Italy and the UK including the
famous jazz singers Norma Winstone and
Rachel Gould.
Patricia has recorded and worked with various artists on albums, film
soundtracks, radio (RAI) shows and theatre plays. In 2001,
she had the opportunity to double-up voices on a recording with Carmel, the British
pop/jazz singer, who gave her special inspiration.
Patricia's first album "Finally",
recorded with her group, is made-up of 9 songs of which 8 are originals composed
by Paolo Serazzi, whilst the lyrics follow nothing but Patricia's personal inspiration,
often with a little irony. The ninth song is by Prince "When
Doves Cry" that has been acoustically re-arranged.

often shows that she is a great listener to singers such as

Italian musicians: Paolo Serazzi on piano, Hammond organ, vocals; Stefano

"Finally is definitely a splendid CD, that spans with amazing naturalness
between soul and jazz, sometimes with a touch of an exotic aroma, often knitting
refined melodies that make us recall the best songs of Joan Armatrading"
(Elio Bussolino, Rockerilla Music Magazine)
"Finally is surprising and engaging"
(Norma Winstone)
"Who has heard or seen Patricia Lowe on stage will not forget her"
(Stefania Bertola, La Stampa)
