| 1. Linear B is the 25 year delayed debut album from , aka Lawrence Worthington . 10 Neo-psychedelic alt-pop gems co-produced with Deakin |
| 2. Lawrence played drums throughout the 1990’s with The Male Nurse, Country Teasers and Yummy Fur, recording several Peel sessions and touring extensively. During this period he began writing songs for a potential solo record. Adopting the name , he played one show and featured on a Vesuvius Records compilation, before relocating to Baltimore MD in 2001 for love |
| 3. The move resulted in a musical hiatus as life’s focus switched to marriage and a career as a carpenter. In 2012, while helping build a recording studio, Lawrence met several people involved in the vibrant local music scene. Inspired by these new relationships and spurred on by a few close friends, he gathered the same equipment he had in the 90’s - cheap Casios and Yamahas mostly - and set it up in his basement |
| 4. Around this time Lawrence was introduced to Josh Dibb who was back in town while the band took a break from touring. They worked together on carpentry projects, bonding over a shared love of music like The Residents, Forever Changes, Portisheads’s Third, Frank Ocean & Psychocandy. Lawrence would send Josh demos, and when one in particular caught his ear, he suggested they book a few days in a ‘legit’ studio |
| 5. It went well, yielding the songs ‘Poster From Athena’ and ‘Soul Ronnie’. Encouraged by the outcome, it became something they did every other weekend. Lawrence wrote and performed, while Josh took on engineering and mixing duties. They co-produced the sessions and over time there was an album. The result is Linear B; a stunning debut born out of geography, circumstance and friendship, 25 years in the making |
