About Me

LR-60 has new album in works on heels of recent release with Mr. Moods.
Los Angeles, CA – LR-60 just released a new album in June 2008 and a new project is in the works, says LR-60’s Skip Warren.
2008’s “Coldest Memories” opened wide the floodgates for the presentation to the world of LR-60’s atmospheric, soaked-in-hooks style. The single “Mirage” gave listeners a tantalizing promise of what “Coldest Memories” has to offer.
“Mirage” finds a hypnotic focal point at which the organic and the digital can be merged. A lush chillout-jazz-for-tomorrow composition, “Mirage” has as its source of mesmerism addictive downtempo grooves, a melting pot of moods and textures, dense atmospherics manifesting in paradoxical spaciousness and a merging of jazz and electronic trip.
“Coldest Memories” brings forward LR-60’s captivating conglomerate of post-modern jazz, trip-hop, dub, chillout and so much more. LR-60 is professional trumpet player Skip Warren, who found the fulfillment of a vision when he discovered – via online contact –electronic artist Christian Denis – aka Mr. Moods. Through their correspondence they discovered that they shared the same musical goals and tastes.,p> Thus, Warren’s extensive jazz, blues and soul experience perfectly dovetailed with Mr. Moods’ electronic excursions. Their partnership gave birth to such tracks as “Mirage,” whose Middle Eastern sound brings the ancient into today and combines the organica of LR-60’s trumpet with Mr. Moods’ electronic ambience-summoning. LR-60 toured with the late “Disco Lady” Johnnie Taylor for four years in the late 70s and early 80s and also played with the late Z.Z. Hill for a year. He toured with blues legend Bobby “Blue” Bland for a decade from 1981 to 1991. That connection nabbed him countless shows with B.B. King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Greg Alman, Albert King, Little Milton, Clarence Carter, Tyrone Davis, Bonnie Raitt, Willie Nelson, Wilson Pickett, Junior Walker & The Allstars, John Lee Hooker, Dr. John, Millie Jackson and James Brown – just to name a few.
He also enjoyed a stellar opportunity – recording with gospel singer Kirk Franklin on the Nu Nation Project album with noted gospel artist Fred Hammond. LR-60 has also written and recorded original compositions for CNN and, with Mr. Moods, has recently had several tunes from the CD "Coldest Memories" selected for airplay on National Geographic Channels International. LR-60 & Mr. Moods can also be heard on 60+ FM & internet radio stations world-wide including Sirius XM Chill and Musical Starstreams.
