“Steve Lawson is a bass guitarist – “without a doubt the most free-thinking solo bass player ever to emerge from this country” says Bass Player Magazine – composer, improvisor, writer and academic based in Birmingham.
He has released over a 100 solo and collaborative albums on his own non-existent label, toured extensively across Europe and the US, lectures in numerous colleges and universities, recently submitted a PhD looking at the role of the audience in his music, and for the best part of a decade wrote a column for Bass Player Magazine. In his spare time he imagines what it would be like to have spare time.
No less a luminary than Victor Wooten once commented “Steve Lawson is a brilliant musician. I’ve known about him and listened to him for many years. He may not be one of the most famous bassists but he is definitely one of the most talented” – who are we to argue?”
