Ruairidh Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 If you don't already know who Laurence Cottle is go to www.laurencecottle.com to check him out. He layed down the fantastic bassline's for Maeve O'Boyle's much anticipated debut album "All My Sins". It's a great album with Laurence's wonderful tone high in the mix. Great songs to learn! I play for her live band The Mayhem, so i'm allowed to borrow some of his tasteful chops. "All My Sins" recently received a 5/5 review from the Daily Express, whereas other well established artists received 3/5. Its already available via iTunes, Amazon, Napster and all other download sites. It goes on sale in HMV stores from Monday 22nd of June. A great album for a bass players album collection.

Tech Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 he plays a lot right by me - the family are swansea based and his brother owns the local jazz club. quite often he's the in house bassist. what a treat, and what a nice guy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruairidh Posted June 21, 2009 Author Share Posted June 21, 2009 He really is a dynamite player! And his tone is amazing too...i'm lucky enough to fill in his role on the album by playing his parts live; which are a joy to play. I learned a lot from his style of playing and note choice; which compliment the vocals so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
