Biography

Singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Luke Sutherland formed Bows after the breakup of his first group, the critically-acclaimed Long Fin Killie. Danish singer Signe Høirup Wille-Jørgensen completed the core of Bows' lineup, and the duo made their debut early in 1999 with the trip-hop inspired single "Big Wings." The jazzy single "Blush" and the album of the same name appeared later that year. Sutherland is also a critically-acclaimed novelist; his semi-autobiographical first book Jelly Roll, which follows the journey of a Scottish jazz band touring the highlands, was nominated for a Whitbread Prize in the First Novel category.
