Thomas Truax Birmingham, UK
"Thomas Truax crafts rich, poetically evocative songs about insects, trees, technology, and a lifelong obsession with all
things lunar. He travels the world performing with his "band" of bizarre self-made instruments including a motorized drum machine made with bike wheels and a souped-up Gramophone called 'The Hornicator', as well as his venerable guitar 'Hank'.

How to Make It in Hollywood
by Curtis Eller
Curtis and I toured together in America and discovered that we were kindred spirits in that we both like to stand on bars and table tops. He plays some fine banjo on a couple of my own recordings.

I just can't say enough about Gemma Ray. There's a longing and a magic, cinematic, dream quality between her voice, guitar, and the worlds she creates. I was a fan before we ever worked together.

Ten Years On: Live In London
by Steve Lawson
supported by 6 fans who also own “The Dog is an Admirer of the Motorcycle”
A decade into his career as solo bass guitarist, looper, general entertainer, mouth-on-legs and alarming fashion rebel, Steve Lawson takes stock and visits/revisits both old and new pieces in concert. As ever, "jazztronic", "folkalicious", "popstewed", "calypsodelic" and other cute blender-type adjectives apply.

Behind Every Word
by Steve Lawson
supported by 6 fans who also own “The Dog is an Admirer of the Motorcycle”
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.
