Lemon B. Cola

About Me

The name is from the song "Bolivia '95" by Scott Walker. The line 'Lemon Bloody Cola' metamorphosed into the name Lemon B. Cola and now looks a bit like Salmon P. Chase, although I don't look like him at all.
I started playing guitar too late to become a virtuoso. So I just strum along while singing.
Most of the songs I'm going to put on here will just be bedroom recordings with one mic, a guitar and my voice, but 'Mosquito' and 'Love and Death Three Times' were produced and mixed by André Feldhaus, who also played Hohner Pianet-Clavinet, Wurlitzer electric piano, several organs, electric and acoustic guitars, snare drum, snapped his fingers rhythmically and sang backing vocals. I just sang and played rhythm guitar.

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
