Lou Barlow

Louis Knox Barlow (born July 17, 1966) is an American alternative rock singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist.

A founding member of the groups Dinosaur Jr. and Sebadoh, Barlow is credited[1] with helping to pioneer the lo-fi style of rock music in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Barlow was born in Dayton, Ohio and was raised in Jackson, Michigan and Westfield, Massachusetts. Barlow is widely considered[2] to be among the most prolific and ground-breaking indie musicians of the 1990s. Many labels have been applied to his brand of acoustic rock, including «folk-pop» and «folkcore.»
