Born in Calgary, she eventually migrated to the Yukon where she lived with her father in Carcross, near a mountain that once offered passage to gold hunters. Lowell drew strength from desolate beachside cabin she and her father called home before finding her way to Massachusetts, Ottawa, Georgia, then back to Calgary before basing herself in Toronto and London. After earning the attention of Martin Terefe, Sacha Skarbek, James Bryan and Paul Herman, Lowell was invited to Kensaltown Studios in London to write with all of them. However, what they worked on wasn't in sync with her own vision - so, supported in her decision to stay true to herself, she and the pack scrapped what they had and started all over again. Soon, they saw the completion of her EP, I Killed Sara V., and the beginnings of her full-length record, We Loved Her Dearly - her debut album on Arts & Crafts.

Like dynamite
Need a cheerleader
Let me throw you down
While I look at her
I'm like "Oh my god
I think I need a girlfriend"

I'm like dynamite

Need a cheerleader
Let me throw you down
While I look at her
I'm like "Oh my god
I think I need a girlfriend"

Fuck all you bad boys
You bad bad boys
You bad boys
You bad bad boys
You bad boys
You bad bad boys
Comin' on down cloud 69

I'm like dynamite
Exploding sweet
Take out your lips
And put em back here
I'm like "Oh my god
I wish I hadn't said that"

I'm like dynamite
It's a gentle pull
You can let em wait
But you never feel full
I'm like "Oh my god
You know you need a girl
(Girl girl girl girl girl girl girl girl)"

Bad boys you bad bad boys
Bad boys you bad bad boys
Bad boys you bad bad boys
Comin on down cloud 69

Bad boys you bad bad boys
Bad boys you bad bad boys
Bad boys you bad bad boys
Comin on down cloud 69
