“Low Society’s ‘Sanctified’ is a Modern Blues Masterpiece. The talented team behind this album poured their heart and soul into every track, and it shows in the loving production, meaningful lyrics, and inspired performances. A classic blues fan looking to step into the world of the modern genre will not go astray with Low Society on their record shelf.”

“If you ask today how to bring the blues to the future: this is clearly the way. "Sanctified" is one of the albums you must hear in 2017. And Low Society are, for me, one of the most recommendable bands in the arena of blues-rock.”

“...We appreciate the rich and powerful voice of Mandy Lemons but also that she always keeps close to the skillful and inspired guitarist who never takes the easy route, but instead gives us ever more ingenious riffs.”

“In Mandy Lemons they have a diva capable of conveying the rawest and most plaintive of emotions...or alternatively assail you with her attitude as she does whilst “strutting her stuff” on the title track where she sounds almost like a female Muddy Waters. Add in the impressive fretwork of Sturgis Nikides whose shimmering slide adds a Western Swing feel to the soulful country opus ‘River Of tears’, whilst his vintage rock’n’roll guitar powers the stomping ‘Here Comes The Flood’.”

“...All in all Sanctified finds Low Society sounding like a more mature band and producing an excellent third album. A hidden secret of Beale Street this band needs to be heard by the world, I for one hope that happens.”

“Low Society present "Sanctified", their third album, in which they seek to take the blues to a higher stratum...it is a production that seeks to make a transition to another level, it is a mark within the normal evolution of a group that is led by a vocalist with a fierce character and a guitarist who dominates the slide at will.”

“The word, “sanctified,” means to make holy. It’s a powerful word, a word of transition, a word of taking something and turning into something so much more than what it was used for. A simple cup becomes sanctified and is turned into the Holy Grail. Here, I believe Low Society is taking music – specifically blues music – and elevating it. In their hands, blues music becomes a powerful healing force...”

“Low Society set themselves up with their third studio album 'Sanctified'. From Memphis over New Orleans and the Delta, isn’t all a small step for Low Society!”

“...Sanctified is a tender scorcher and their best album to date.”

“The high-wire aspect of any performance or expression is the ability to push that performance or expression to the brink of bedlam and keeping there without falling prey to the bedlam. In this, Lemons has no peer. Nikides and Lemons are textbook synergy, making something eclipsing the sum of their separate parts. ”

“Sanctified, their third studio album is a hard-hitting, gobsmacking delight...The spirits of the cross-roads must have been summoned...Lemons and Nikides both dole out no-holds-barred performances...Low Society magnificently delivers a marvelous album of blues enacted with a rebellious flair. ”

“ Grit and growl to a sensual sound that will invade your dreams, Lemons has a vocal range that is second to none...Sturgis Nikides on guitars, mandolin, tremeloa and vocals could make a wire stretched between two nails on the side of a barn sound good. ”

“...With “Sanctified,” Mandy and Sturgis empower their near-spiritual connection to the blues...”

“...original blues rock roof raising with songs so on point you can listen to material you never heard before fearlessly because the writing and singing deliver again and again.”

“...Lemons is a tornadic force of nature laying waste to all of the blues-rock produced since the 1960s...This band, following its mistress Lemons' lead, is a feral and untethered spirit that makes its musical statement like the basement door slamming in the dark, off its hinges.”

“...before us is a band of substance. The bottleneck slides with agility on the strings, through Chicago and the Delta, in order to offer the ideal ground for the dominant singing of Miss Lemons...”

“ Low Society hit the ball out of the park with this one, and it will be interesting to see where they go from here...”

“...the music is a compelling blend of blues and vintage rock'n'roll, reminiscent of a blend of Elmore James and Hound Dog Taylor – underpinning Lemons' Koko Taylor infused vocals...”

“Of all the blues rock bands in the land, only this one owns the domain screaminblues.com - and man, do they own it. Slide guitarist Sturgis Nikides attacks the fasties like the rock 'n' roller he is, while firecracker frontwoman Mandy Lemons lives to straddle bucking grooves and ride 'em for all they're worth....”

“Mandy Lemons is a powerhouse blast furnace, speaker-threatening blues belter and Sturgis Nikides shreds on that guitar...”

“High Time is not some recital of dusty nine-and twelve-bar blues performed to death by lesser talent...It is extremely hard to do something different in this most well-loved musical tradition, but Low Society does it. While acknowledged as musicians, Nikides and Lemons deserve much, much more attention.”

“Low Society...these hipsters have taken southern country blues and super-charged it to a white-hot intensity.”

“...to hear the savagery of these performers coupled with their purist agility, which at times borders on mythical, is something which needs no introduction or explanation. Psychotic and masterful, this is a record and a group to pay serious attention to.”
