Biography

The Black Neon (aka Stephen Webster) had already performed and released recordings on Memphis Industries with Toby Jenkins under the name Fort Lauderdale. However, his solo endeavors under the Black Neon moniker made their recording debut on the 2001 Memphis Industries 7" single "You're So Vain." The follow-up 12", "Your Sex Life," was released a year later and was met with great enthusiasm by synth pop and club enthusiasts. After a four-year hiatus, he released Arts & Crafts in September of 2006, which features guest performances from such psychedelic/prog rock luminaries as Falk U. Rogner (Amon Düül), Harald Grosskopf (Ash Ra Tempel), and Yasuhiro Otani. ~ Rob Theakston, All Music Guide
