about

Older Lover presents ‘Seance of the Year':

She’s dreaming, hydra-headed,
I’m all copper and brass.
Chinagraph stutters,
So we spell it with the glass…

Table rapping in a 1970s living room (in full Victorian costume) and inadvertently releasing the ghosts of Tom Verlaine and Stacy Sutherland from the Caverns of Dub.

Older Lover is the occasional solo musical guise of Glasgow-based visual artist and musician Douglas Morland. As well as the 10” ‘Older Lover EP’ (released on legendary Optimo Music label), Morland has been involved in a stellar range of musical projects, including post-punk funksters Mother and the Addicts (Chemikal Underground), “psychosexual Lynchian nightmare” Big Ned (Optimo Music), POST, Muscles of Joy, The Parsonage and others. He also currently plays guitar with Glasgow’s The Leather Corridor (“a demented Shakin’ Stevens”, according to the BBC) and Kraut-pop girl band French Boys.

Morland’s Older Lover project stems from a playful home studio-focused approach to building songs with scraps, snippets and unusual musical sources and influences, dictated as much by his practice as a visual artist as it is by the sonic experimentation of Lee Perry, Walter Gibbons or Joe Meek, a lo-fi mangling of the funk groove, or his beloved and ever-present ‘Link Wray-plays-surf music’ Jazzmaster twang.
