Lucas Harwood

An Australian musician and multi-instrumentalist, Lucas Harwood is recognized for his foundational role as the bassist in the genre-defying rock outfit King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard. Joining in 2010 and originating from Geelong's music scene, Harwood (né Skinner) provides the essential rhythmic anchor that grounds the band's prolific and stylistically volatile output. His bass work navigates the collective's explorations from garage and psychedelic rock into complex territories of jazz, microtonal tuning, and heavy metal. This steadfast presence allows for the band's expansive instrumental freedom, defining his contribution as a crucial, stabilizing force within a perpetually evolving sound.
