Back to the Future (31st Mar 2003)
UK solo bassist Steve Lawson has joined forces with US CCM pioneers Ed DeGarmo and Dana Key in an unlikely collaboration. The new trio, who will go under the name DeGarmo, Key and Lawson, hope to attract a legion of new fans with a combination of ambient bass soundscapes and 80s mullet pop.
