Chequerboard
A Japanese garden is a fitting metaphor for the music of Chequerboard. This music is raked, and tended to, with such focus and care that each sound rises and falls in its own being without ever losing purpose or beauty. Peace reigns, and the acoustic heart of John Lambert’s guitar beats contently and evenly through the veins of the partaker. Living on the serener end of the post rock rainbow Chequerboard’s acoustic guitar now and then is accompanied by other equally tempered instruments, keeping a steady unfolding, and developing each reach with finesse and class. With over 21 million streams on Spotify to date Chequerboard continues to build a global audience for his understated take on guitar music that speaks directly to the heart of its audience.
