Behind Every Word, by Steve Lawson

Behind Every Word

by Steve Lawson

supported by

Gregory Harper These recordings transcend the bass guitar and it’s role in popular music. This music is fresh, honest, and expertly played. It’s ambient and funky, it’s soulful and progressive. It’s Steve Lawson to a tee. Headphones recommended. Favorite track: One Step.

Ken Favourite track... Nobody wins unless everybody wins. Absolutely beautiful!! Favorite track: Nobody Wins Unless Everybody Wins.

Tim Price Oh this just became my fave Steve Lawson track.. until the next one :-) Shades of 'Albatross' - tingles up the spine. Favorite track: Blue Planet.

Retroprogressive While I love all of Steve's eclectic work I keep coming back to this album. Its late night feel, surrounds and nurtures you, melodies haunt you and I never tire of it. Its like a memory of some special event which moved you. Favorite track: Behind Every Word.

Digital Album
Streaming + Download

Immediate download of 11-track album in your choice of 320k mp3, FLAC, or just about any other format you could possibly desire, for as little as zilch or as much as you currently have in the bank. Somewhere between the two seems wise, but please, if you're unsure, download it for free, and give it a few listens before deciding. If you want to pay later, that's fine too. Or not. Just consider it an early christmas present :)

Alternatively, you can buy any of the individual tracks for 50p.

Which seems a bit weird given that you can have the album for whatever you want to pay for it...

originally conceived as an homage to Ry Cooder's haunting 'Paris, Texas' soundtrack, it ended up sounding a little more expansive than the claustrophibic heat conjured up in Cooder's epic work, so the title was taken from the David Attenborough series of the same name, with it's glorious vision of the moist parts of the planet.

about

released in 2006, Behind Every Word is my most recent solo album. It features two amazing special guests - BJ Cole plays pedal steel guitar on Scott Peck, and Julie McKee sings on One Step. I'm rather proud of it, and hope you enjoy it too!
