Steve Lawson (born 1972) is a British solo electric bass guitarist and looper. Based in Birmingham, UK, Lawson also regularly tours in the United States and Europe as a live performer. In addition to his own headline concerts, he has supported both Level 42 and 21st Century Schizoid Band as a solo act, shared bills with other solo performers (such as Michael Manring), worked as a third of the political doom metal band #TORYCORE, and performed and recorded as a duo with his wife, the American singer Lobelia.〔(Review of Steve Lawson supporting 21st Century Schizoid Band ), ''No Warning'' e-zine (reproduced on Steve Lawson homepage).〕〔(#TORYCORE; an interview with Lucy Ellinson and Steve Lawson ) (Mayfest homepage).〕 A vocal advocate for musicians retaining control over their own work and career, Lawson releases his music exclusively via his own Pillow Mountain label (latterly, through Bandcamp). His releases have included solo works and various duets and trios, all of which feature Lawson's signature technique of live looping (mingling multiple layers of both traditional and unusual sounds generated from bass guitar). Lawson is highly active and visible on the internet, interacting with fans and other musicians and using web technology such as Twitter to promote his own career and the work of other independent musical acts. In addition to this, he is a music journalist and cultural commentator, regularly contributing to Bassist and Guitarist Magazine (as well as writing for The Independent On Sunday, Third Way Magazine, Bass Player and Bass Guitar Magazine, and frequently publishes essays and hosting discussions on various social media). Lawson co-hosts a bass guitar forum with Michael Manring at (talkbass.com ) and is a regular contributor to (ScottsBassLessons.com ), (thedudepit.com ), (basschat.co.uk ) and (activebass.com ). He also teaches bass guitar in Birmingham. ==Equipment== Lawson uses two Modulus 6-string basses, one fretted and one fretless. He uses a Looperlative LP1 for looping and a majority of his effects are provided by the two Lexicon G2 multi-effects processors. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Steve Lawson (musician)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
