from here on it's just Andy and Julie playing a duet… I *love* this bit :)

Petrol Blue

The 2nd track from our first gig together at Tower Of Song in Birmingham. This followed straight on from the first track that's here on Soundcloud (add about 10 seconds of applause between the two tracks if you want to recreate the effect) - I think I'm getting closer with this mix to recreating the sound-world of the gig itself. It's a fun challenge! 

Enjoy! Please do like/comment/share/paste the link to anywhere that you think people might like to hear the music (or just hit the share button to post it to FB/Twitter/etc.) - there will be at least one album, probably 3 or more, of this stuff coming out pretty soon (also, make sure you check out Julie's duo recordings with Marco Machera - some really amazing music recorded on the same European visit…)

Steve Lawson/Julie Slick/Andy Edwards - second track from first gig

An ambient improvisation on solo fretless bass (5-string), using three Source Audio Soundblox2 pedals: Manta bass filter, Multiwave bass distortion, and Dimension reverb. Lightly edited in Reaper.

Orion

A short improvisation on a Sigma (5-string EADGC fretted) acoustic bass, plus various effects. I was experimenting with adding a loop while editing in Reaper (by taking a short section of the solo and looping it).

Falling

A rough cut from the New Standard project with Steve Lawson

The New Standard

Don't Want to Know

All this Time is from the compelling new album by veteran songwriter Lobelia Lawson takes a fresh look at heartbreak; exploring themes of hope, renewal and confidence. Love Or Something Like It, produced by Juno award winning producer Rob Szabo, is modern, fragile and at times intense, with the witty tongue-in-cheek songwriting that Lobelia is known for. Releasing on Valentines Day as an album for the romantically disenfranchised.
