Lowen & Navarro

Lowen & Navarro was a songwriting team composed of David Eric Lowen and Dan Navarro, who met in Los Angeles, California, in the 1980s. They wrote the song "We Belong," which became a major hit for Pat Benatar in 1984,[1] and the song "Hammerhead Shark" which was re-written and included on David Lee Roth's gold certified 1991 album A Little Ain't Enough. They became active as a performing group in 1987. In 1990, they began to release a number of records of their own, including "Learning To Fall" and "Purpose".[1]

On March 17, 2004, Lowen was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. Because of compromises to his playing and singing, Lowen & Navarro ceased touring. They played their last shows on June 5, 2009, at the Rams Head Tavern in Annapolis, Maryland, and on June 6, 2009, at the Birchmere in Alexandria, Virginia

Lowen died of complications of ALS on March 23, 2012, aged 60.[1]

Navarro continues to tour as a solo performer. He is the cousin of guitarist Dave Navarro.[citation needed]
