KCUR 89.3 Mark Lowrey surveys the room at Cafe Trio where he has resumed performing live after getting vaccinated and spending months streaming performances from his apartment. Stuck at home during the pandemic, Mark Lowrey streamed performances of an at-home happy hour called Jazz and Plants. Now, he's back for live performances. Last March, with venues closed, musician Mark Lowrey started playing his keyboard as many as six times a week — from his one-bedroom apartment in downtown Kansas City. “It was a very small apartment,” he said. “And I don’t even remember how I got the idea to stream, I was lucky to do it early on. But, as it turned out, the only attractive looking wall in my apartment was where I had a few plants.”
