Video: Roger Waters records with Lucius

Posted March 6, 2018 by Floydian Slip

Lucius, featuring vocalists Holly Laessig and Jess Wolfe, released its “Nudes” album last Friday. The album features Roger Waters on the closing track, a cover of Leadbelly‘s “Goodnight, Irene.”

Yesterday the group published a video of Waters, Laessig and Wolfe — barely recognizable without the pair’s matching wigs — recording the song direct to vinyl in a vintage Voice-O-Graph booth at New York City’s Electric Lady Studios.

Laessig and Wolfe provide backing vocals for Waters Us + Them tour and also appear on his album “Is This the Life We Really Want?” (2017).
