Kristell Lowagie (born 6 March 1980) is a Belgian pop music singer and songwriter.
Lowagie was born at Brussels. She led the gothic/symphonic metal bands Valkyre and Skeptical Minds and is now working on different musical projects: her solo project Joliet, an electro-pop music; The Road To Consciousness project, a metal opera; Lovelorn, a rock-metal band.
Lowagie started singing at age 20, with Adams-Stokes, a Belgian pop-rock band. Together they performed concerts throughout Belgium, and they were in the finals of the Belgian Emergenza contest in 2001.
In 2002, Lowagie was asked by Vincent Lacrosse to join his project Skeptical Minds, an industrial electro metal music. The band played in big metal festivals, together with bands like Epica, Lacuna Coil, After Forever, Leave's eyes. They recorded the album Rent to Kill, and were signed on the US label Sirenette Music Industries. Lowagie left the group in December 2007.
In 2008, Lowagie sang with Valkyre, a symphonic metal band from Belgium. She then started her own musical project, Joliet and in March 2008 a first EP Wandering my Path.
In 2009, Lowagie was asked to sing for the rock-metal opera The Road To Consciousness. That's where she met her new musical partner Bernard Daubresse, and in 2010, they are currently working on their new band, Lovelorn.
