Two worlds have collided, and what glorious and odd worlds they are. After a successful summer tour pairing Primus with Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger, Les Claypool and Sean Lennon have decided to combine their abstract talents into a project called The Claypool Lennon Delirium. Their efforts thus far have spawned the upcoming, full-length release called "Monolith of Phobos."
"Sean is a musical mutant after my own heart," said Claypool. "He definitely reflects his genetics-not just the sensibilities of his dad but also the abstract perspective and unique approach of his mother. It makes for a glorious freak stew." After some impromptu, backstage jams and an epic live sit-in on Primus's psychedelic opus, "Southbound Pachyderm," Claypool approached Lennon about doing a recording project. "I was trying to wrangle up an Oysterhead reunion since Primus was taking a rest for 2016 but the planets just wouldn't align for that," said Claypool. "I don't like sitting around, so when Sean said he didn't have plans for this next year, we started kicking around the notion of making an old-school, psychedelic/prog record. Next thing I know, he's staying in my guesthouse, drinking my vino and banging on my drums." Lennon responded, "I told Les that I was Neil Diamond's nephew. I think that is what really sold him on the idea of working with me."For more information, visit The Claypool Lennon Delirium's Website at: http://theclaypoollennondelirium.com/
