Lawson Rollins - 3 Minutes To Midnight Music CD

3 minutes to midnight. Time is lapsing. What would you do with the final moments of your day? Award-winning world beat guitarist Lawson Rollins pondered that question as he entered the recording studio to craft his seventh album, "3 Minutes to Midnight". Focusing on "the urgency of the moment, the exhilaration of the speed of sound, the poignancy of the remains of the day and the mystical power of the number three," Rollins wrote a dozen multicultural compositions - all in the three minute range and illuminated by his prodigious finger style guitar play. The recording is stripped down, punchy and concise, a radical departure for the Billboard chart-topping artist known for creating lavishly produced and elaborately-constructed tracks that are at least twice as long.
