Damian Lewis: Mission Creep Signed Lithograph
$17.00
“It’s just what the world needs,” says Damian Lewis, “Another record by an actor.”
That’s a very Lewis remark: pre-emptive, self-deprecating, self-knowing. After years of strumming away at his guitar and playing the odd wrap party as part of a scratch band, the garlanded actor has stepped out of his comfort zone and made his first album. And here’s the thing: it’s the real deal. Far from being the sort of misguided and ill-advised vanity project you might expect from thespians and the like, Mission Creep is a collection of rootsy, rock and jazz-tinged songs that evinces a deep love of music, and a deep need to communicate.
