new video, messing around with the Dunlop Justin Chancellor Cry Baby Wah. It's a fuzz-wah for bass, and sounds immense! Proper Cliff Burton vibes to some of the tones it'll produce :)

Today's video is a live one from a few years ago - recorded at Tower Of Song here in Birmingham, hearing this again really surprised me, in a good way. It's incredibly freewheeling & I'm so glad I don't have the kind of music career that requires me to recreate stuff like this! Improv affords the opportunity to be surprised by your own work & I love that feeling of having no idea what's going on here:

It's still hilarious to me that the most watched video of me on YouTube is one without any of the stuff I'm best known for in it. No pedals, no looping, no weird shit, just a lovely improvised chord melody thing, sat outside the Musik Messe in Frankfurt

FOUR DAYS til my new album comes out - Beauty And Desolation is released on monday, via #bandcamp - http://music.stevelawson.net - here's a video of one of the tracks, called Transcendence And Decay - kind of gnarly instrumental hiphop vibe (and the video is it being recorded, as the whole thing is a single take live) enjoy!
