Bill Laswell Biography
Bill Laswell's creative fingers have been in so many musical pies over the years, he should open his own bakery. The bassist/producer's career took off after his arrival in New York City in the late 1970s, as he paired with a host of downtown/avant-garde luminaries such as John Zorn and Elliott Sharp, and appeared on and/or produced albums by a diverse array of artists, including Mick Jagger, Brian Eno, Fela Kuti, and White Zombie. Laswell also made a name for himself captaining some of the most diverse projects in contemporary music, including his collective Praxis--which featured Bootsy Collins, Yamatsuka Eye, Mick Harris of Napalm Death, and elusive guitar whiz Buckethead, among many others--and no-wave funk outfit Material.
