The Telescopes have a new album out this Friday, on February 24th. It’s called Experimental Health and it’s a strange and beguiling thing. As we’ll learn on this episode, The Telescopes have got a bunch of records out this year, with the legendary shoegaze/experimental/psychedelic/noise rock group seemingly making up for lost time after the pandemic of 2020 made them down tools for a moment. On this episode I talk to Stephen Lawrie, the sole constant in a group that started their sonic adventure way back in 1987. It’s a good conversation this. Far reaching and, for a fan of the band like me - and hopefully you! - frequently illuminating.   Twitter - @jamesjammcmahon   Substack - https://spoook.substack.com   YouTube - www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Vf_1E1Sza2GUyFNn2zFMA   Reddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/jamesmcmahonmusicpod/

Episode 126: Stephen Lawrie, The Telescopes

Stephen Lawrie grew up with music. His dad was approached by Chas Chandler before he signed Jimi Hendrix. But his band broke up before they signed a contract and were lost to history. But his father’s love of music transferred to Stephen. He remembers being mesmerized by guitars as a toddler. He formed The Telescopes in the late 80’s and has been the only consistent member. In fact, the most consistent thing about The Telescopes has been change. Whether it’s band members or the sound of the music itself, no Telescopes album is the same as the previous ones.Stephen admits that the band stopped doing anything when he lost the inspiration to write. He also admitted that sometimes he’s been more inspired by what he DIDN’T want to do than by what he wanted to do. He tells me how the 4th Telescopes album was a direct result of not being able to play the third album live! And speaking of live Telescopes, the band has a policy of never turning their amps off during a live show. They just see how long it takes for the venue to turn them off!Check out Stephen and The Telescopes on the socials, pick up The Telescopes albums on Bandcamp. Also check out Foam Giant, a new project he’s been collaborating on. Check us out @PerformanceAnx on social media. Rate &amp; review episodes!

Stephen Lawrie (The Telescopes)

Professor Stephen Lawrie, Professor of Psychiatry and Head of the Division of Psychiatry at the University of Edinburgh, delivers his Medical Detectives lecture entitled "Scanning for a Diagnostic Test for Schizophrenia". Brain imaging can be used to distinguish patients with schizophrenia from their relatives, and from other patients with major psychiatric disorders such as bipolar disorder and autism. This talk takes a journey through these investigations, lay out the evidence and show how outcomes may be enhanced and possibly even prevent psychosis in high risk populations. Recorded on 24 October 2013 at The University of Edinburgh's Anatomy Lecture Theatre.
