..John Lawrence | Create Your Badge
Sunday Telgraph 1/11/09 , John Lawrence **** Hoxton Underbelly, London N1
IN THE 10 YEARS since he left Welsh psychedelic innovators Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, guitarist John Lawrence has developed an amazingly expressive and individual guitar technique. Matching Paul Hogan's hat with Charles I's hair also gives him a distinctive look. And at Hoxton's Underbelly, Lawrence inhabits a stylistic spectrum that has Jazzman Stanley Jordan at one end, Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi at the other, with John Martyn in the middle. Those still mourning the loss of the bibulous Martyn's maverick voice will find Lawrence's superb new album Rainy Night nagreat source of comfort.
'Rainy Night' by John Lawrence is available at www.myspace.com/infinitychimps .

MAKE EVERYDAY COUNT! Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people who you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Let yourself fall in love, even if it doesn't seem right because you are too young or too far, just follow your heart. Surround yourself with those who make you smile, laugh, and make you happy. Break free and set your sights high. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you. Create your own life then LET GO and LIVE IT!
