LaMP Deliver New Vinyl ‘The Relix Session (Live from Garcia’s Chicago)

Russ Lawton (drums), Scott Metzger (guitar), and Ray Paczkowski (keyboards), the amalgamated force known as LaMP, have detailed their new live album, LaMP – The Relix Session (Live from Garcia’s Chicago), available for pre-order and due by November 24, 2025. The LP champions as the first set to be recorded at the new Windy City concert venue, Garcia’s Chicago, and represents the latest arrival from the Relix Sessions Vinyl Series. 

Recorded over two nights, April 4 and 5, 2025, the vinyl collection transports listeners back to the intimate 300-capacity venue weeks after opening its doors, and unleashed a groove-heavy exchange, populating melodic guitar lines and playful keyboard tones, which promotes the excavation of deep jams and fully-charged interchange.

Thoughtfully selected originals have been arranged with borrowed compositions from late Mali master and pioneer of African desert blues, Ali Farka Touré (“Allah Uya”) and free jazz pioneer Ornette Coleman (“Ramblin”). Baked into the set are tracks off each of their LaMP’s full-length albums, 2025’s One of Us and the trio’s self-titled 2020 debut, which also housed a studio rendition of “Rambin.” 

This fall, LaMP will tour the West Coast, beginning on October 9, 2025, at the Mystic Theater in Petaluma, Calif., followed by a string of Golden State concerts, before Pacific Northwest stops in Portland, Ore., Eugene, Ore., and Seattle. Ahead of their return to the Northeast, the group will stop in Colorado for two nights at Cervantes’ Other Side in Denver, Oct. 20 and 21. Tickets are on sale now.  LaMP – The Relix Session (Live from Garcia’s Chicago) is a limited edition 2-LP set, available in a run of 500 copies. Pre-order now.

Please Note: This product is a pre-order and is expected to ship around November 24, 2025, along with any other vinyl records in your order.
