Lee Vernon - Psych rocker: Moving minds and feet.

Making things better and making better things

Back in March 2021, we pulled together a line up of three artists to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the Morning Communion hosted by the Reasons To Be Cheerful Crew and now we're making these available via three special colab podcasts. The idea was a simple one - delve deeper in to the minds of the people and their processes behind the music. We asked each artist to select one of their own tracks to go under the microscope. This episode features Lee Vernon - the front-man from Pearl Handled Revolver. The band have travelled a long way over the last decade and have thankfully had the decency to send regular updates of their escapades. Four EPs, two live albums and four studio albums chart a journey from the limits of primal blues, via unlikely liaisons between bare-bones stoner rock to blackened psych soul music. The underlying aim has always been to move the feet while the head slowly succumbs to a barrage of ideas regarding states of madness induced by the modern world. They have an uncanny ability to achieve this with freakish regularity.
