Patriotism in song usually emanates from country
& western singers. Patriotism, pride and passion are
felt, but seldom verbalized, by African-Americans. “I'm
An American,” an emotive and timely new ode to American
troops, touchingly delivered by established Las Vegas
crooner Daniel Lowery, who is African-American, was
released nationwide on May 5, 2008.
The song, written by Lowery, Miami producer/songwriter
Hal S. Batt and Nashville songwriter Jennifer
Constantine, is an uplifting tribute to American troops
and a reminder to the American people of the precious
freedoms that we sometimes take for granted.
“I want this song to be an anthem,”
says Lowery. “I want to send the message that we need to
come together as a country and be as one and change the way
things are going on here.”
Producer Batt, who has worked with an array of
superstars, including Julio Iglesias, Shakira, Sandi Patty, Jean
Carne, and Regina Belle, agrees . . . “The reason for this
song is to give people hope. It's because they're doing their
job that I'm able to do my job here. I feel indebted to do a
song that's going to make them smile.”
Lowery is an established Las Vegas singer, having shared the
stage with everyone from Bill Cosby to Gladys Knight. Originally
performing under the moniker of Jamariah (Swahili for “dream
chaser”), he built up a substantial following.
Daniel Lowery is one of the few
African-American singers with his own Vegas act, he has
performed at the Monte Carlo Hotel for nearly four years.
“I'm An American” is the right song for these days and times,
lending a human aspect to the
current status for thousands of our
courageous military men and women. Those honorable
troops are our family members and this song gives a
voice to them. Now more than ever, Americans are strong
and looking toward a brighter tomorrow for everyone.
Daniel Lowery's heartfelt “I'm An American” beautifully
demonstrates that a Black man in America can have an anthem too!
“I'm An American”,
the first single from Lowery's
upcoming self-titled Timbo/Jam Records CD, is available at
