And Nothing But The Bass

by Steve Lawson

supported by

GRANT SMITH First saw Steve supporting Level 42 back in 2002 - blew my mind and showed me what is possible using just the humble bass guitar and some pedals. Awesome stuff.

about

My first solo album, recorded at my first handful of solo gigs (Chance is From my first ever solo gig!) - all recorded live to minidisc with a stereo mic in front of my amp, it is to Jez Carr's immense credit that he not only played the piano on Bittersweet, but was the one who took my master recording and turned it into something releasable. :) Hope you enjoy it...

(BTW, the three extra tracks mentioned on the cover picture will be available as soon as I can convert them to high-res audio to upload. I've only got the MP3s at the moment, which isn't good enough for BandCamp. If you can't wait and have bought the download, email me, and I'll make sure you get them :)
