Steve Lawson

The fourth solo album from the UK’s leading solo bass guitarist, ‘Behind Every Word’ is Steve Lawson’s most complete statement as a composer and performer to date. Nine of the Eleven tracks are completely solo tunes, combining the ambient improvs of his previous work with more structurally composed music and a greater emphasis on melody. The album features two very special guests - pedal steel guitar legend, BJ Cole and one of London's finest jazz singers, Julie McKee.

'Grace And Gratitude' is an all-solo all-live-in-the-studio album of looped and processed bass by the highly regarded musician and critic Steve Lawson. Combining ambient soundscapes with brooding chordal work and dark jazz harmonies, the album's overall feel is contrasts dark atmospheres with richly melodic explorations.
