Hugh McDowell (born 31 July 1953, in Hampstead, London) was a cellist for the Electric Light Orchestra between 1971-1972 and 1973-1979.
McDowell performed with the first live line-up of ELO, but left with Roy Wood to perform with the group Wizzard. He returned to ELO in 1973 replacing Colin Walker and remained with the group until Jeff Lynne removed the string playing part of the line-up. He briefly returned to play live with Electric Light Orchestra Part II in 1991.
More recently he has worked on the 2005 Saint Etienne album Tales from Turnpike House.
