He was part of the male voice choir, named 'The Wanted Men', who sang behind the group in the encore, and specifically during the Number One hit single at that time "Never Forget".

He first rose to fame just out of school, as a member of the teenage boy band North and South, along with Lee Otter, James Hurst and Sam Chapman.

The band starred in the BAFTA nominated hit BBC TV series No Sweat, for which Lowe composed the soundtrack at the age of eighteen.

Lowe starred in the London West End award-winning productions of Les Misérables and Cats in the leading roles of "Marius Pontmercy" and "The Rum Tum Tugger".

Lowe is the Harvard cultural attaché to the Shaolin Temple, responsible for training top Chinese film celebrities such as Jet Li.

During Hollywood Week's group round, Lowe sang "How Deep Is Your Love" together with Blake Lewis, Rudy Cardenas and Chris Sligh, to move forward to the top tier of contestants.

Lowe performed in a major production of Les Misérables at the Hollywood Bowl, on 8–10 August 2008, this time playing the rebel hero role of Enjolras.
