----------------------------------------
Interstate jammers LaMP — featuring Vermont-based Russ Lawton (drums) and Ray Paczkowski (keys), alongside Brooklynite Scott Metzger (guitar) — distill singular, road-honed improv instincts into taut, instrumental epics.
While each of the players has extensive experience with other gigs — Lawton and Paczkowski with the Trey Anastasio Band (TAB) and Soule Monde, and Metzger through projects such as Joe Russo’s Almost Dead (JRAD) and Medeski, Martin, Metzger & Cline (MMMC) — LaMP has hewed its own path.
The trio is currently touring behind their second studio collection, One Of Us, that packs 10 tracks into 35-minutes of kaleidoscopic interplay and club-shifting grooves. It’s the cleanest distillation of the LaMP sound yet, a mission statement of improvisational group-think and compositional chops.
Throughout its runtime, One Of Us acts as a showcase for the myriad of sonic flavors LaMP brings to the table, delivering a listen which works both as deep headphone immersion or a packable-party custom-tailored to deliver the jams to upcoming 2025 tour hangs.
As word has spread and crowds have grown with each subsequent tour, it’s become clear that LaMP ft. Russ Lawton, Scott Metzger & Ray Paczkowski will be a musical force to be reckoned with for the foreseeable future.
