Linc has custom guitars that allow him to play bass and guitar lines simultaneously! Add the complexity of modern prog rock, and you have a unique duo that often sounds like a full 4 piece band. Wonderous Stories magazine summed this latest CD experience up well...
"In essence, Gravity Tree are Linc (vocal and all guitars) plus Alan Nu (percussion, drums, synth etc). The minute or so of the track 'Tender Shoot' has a wonderful lead bass which along with percussion and guitar serves up starters. That bass plays a prominent part throughout, whether behind the music as rhythm or leading, where the voice of Linc has a sniff of Roger Chapman about it, minus much of the grit. It's generally strong stuff, not heavy, but certainly progressive rock 70's style with a guitar rather than keyboard lead. The conventional threads together with the more unconventional and alternative as the excellent 'MInnie's Tree' precedes the eerie percussive 'Harmonic Indulgence' - very much something Zappa would be proud of. Not for anyone of a nervous disposition, this is the rock of intense thinkers, driven by intense rhythms."
