Vernon Reid and EarthQuaker Device's Data Corrupter

Living Colour's very own Vernon Reid explains how he tames a "wild card" pedal like the Data Corrupter during his live solos.

No one plays guitar like Vernon does. His solos are always teetering right at the edge of pure chaos while remaining beautifully cohesive in a way that is so fascinating. All those guys in Living Colour are just in a league of their own individually AND as a band.

I love you Vernon when I was in east new york Brooklyn. Wayne Livingston turned me on to you. The b.r.c and how you guys pioneered to keep African Americans creation of rock n roll know. Godspeed my vivid brother

That is the best sounding stage I have ever played on. I saw Russian Circles, Pelican, Mastodon, Isis, and so many other bands at the old Bottom Lounge...but the new space is incredible. Great to see Vernon creating his magic.

[@leevitalone]
