"Guitar spanking... folk-tinged pop." - Washington Times
Bio / Background
David LaMotte's new studio record, Spin, takes his writing and his sound to new levels. The recording moves gracefully between the naked intensity of solo acoustic tunes and the lush richness of full production, including strings and screaming Southern Rock lap steel.
Rooted in his writing, Spin showcases LaMotte's novelist's eye in subjects from current international conflicts to intimate character sketches. The twelve songs are original, including two co-writes, one with Chris Rosser and one with New Zealand writer Jared White.
David's eighth recording, Spin was produced and recorded on both coasts. The three producers (Chris Rosser in North Carolina, Evan Brubaker and Troy Glessner in Washington state) created the record as a team.
Several of LaMotte's songwriting peers show up in the liner notes, including Christine Kane and Jonathan Kingham. River Guerguerian plays percussion, and fretless bass icon Michael Manring (Michael Hedges, John Gorka) is also found in the mix.
↓ more ↓The release of Spin comes close on the heels of LaMotte's fourth European tour, this year sponsored by German carmaker Opel. In January he'll be the headliner at the Auckland Folk Festival in New Zealand, kicking off his third tour there, to be followed by extensive touring in the U.S.
