In 2004 a second album, Fredrik Lundin Overdrive Plays The Music of Leadbelly, Belly-up, was released. It features Lundin's arrangements of the music of blues/folk legend Huddie "Leadbelly" Ledbetter. The band has toured Scandinavia, Spain and Canada.

In 2003 Lundin was invited to put together a group for the official opening concert of Copenhagen Jazz Festival. The group, Basalt, performed all original music by Lundin. The concert was recorded by the Danmarks Radio.
