ABOUT THE PERFORMER

Low Cut Connie

Low Cut Connie released Private Lives last year to rave reviews, ultimately earning its place at #34 on Rolling Stone’s “50 best Albums of 2020” list, #4 on Fresh Air’s Ken Tucker‘s ten best albums of the year, and #1 on PopMatters‘ “25 Best Americana Albums of 2020” list. Capping off the year, The New Yorker dubbed Adam Weiner “Pandemic Person of the Year.” The album’s last single, the title track “Private Lives,” was also one of “Public Radio’s Most Popular Songs Of 2020.”

With 6 albums released to date, select highlights from the band’s impressive career include endorsements from Barack Obama and Elton John, a performance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, and a spot on Rolling Stone’s Top 100 Albums of the Decade list for their album Call Me Sylvia.

“Like Bruce Springsteen after he discovered literature, Weiner started bending classic rock to meet his ever more complex emotionalism. The result is that this new 17 track collection Private Lives is Adam Weiner’s version of Born to Run, filled with songs about losers and lovers and beautiful dreamers.” 

“Pandemic Person of the Year”

Private Lives is the richest rock & roll Low Cut Connie have made to date and it’s married to Weiner’s most emotionally resonant set of songs, a combination that’s both potent and moving.”
