Advice to intellectuals: let no-one represent you. - Theodore W Adorno
But I'm an adventurer. I like invention, I like discovery. - Karlheinz Stockhausen
We’re going through changes- Kelly Osbourne
We’re Go Lebanon, a collective music blender from Manchester. We’ve been at it for a while, playing the various saloons and whorehouses that will still have us- dodging bottles and insults between songs and throwing chairs when needed. It’s been a wild ride, but that’s just how we like it. Sometimes. Recent line-up changes have seen our brother Charlie Garson leave for pastures new, after playing with us for three crazy years. His drumming (and much more) can be heard on all of the above tracks and we’re going to miss him.
Into the void.
Evolve. Our new roster has meant a lot more instrument swapping and has taken us in some surprising new directions. Vector Geometry. The Mathematics of Sideways. After an action packed month of touring the city (playing with Jackie-O Motherfucker, Valet, Lite, 54-71 and Trojan Horse!), clearing bars in Preston and being shut down by the police in Upperspace- we’re going to lock ourselves up in the studio for a while, attempting to harness our demons and conjure new ones. I think it’s safe to say we’re all rather excited by this prospect, and can’t wait to get back on the tightrope with a new set of songs.
[NB: Go Lebanon are notoriously erratic and untrustworthy individuals. It would therefore be wise to ignore the above oath of temporary chastity. If you want them to play in your city just ask.]
