Details:
In a time where the singer/songwriter is getting more rare, Lawrence Ethan is the remedy, the void Filler, by Writing, playing and recording all of his own material.
Born in Hollywood, California, Lawrence Ethan grew up contemplating his Suburban desert surroundings and aspiring to become a composer. “I had a long walk home from school and I would write rock operas in my head to pass the time”. He was introduced to “Rock & Roll” at a young age through his sister in the form of Queen, Elton John, Aerosmith, and Pink Floyd.
Lawrence began his professional music career at the age of eighteen, sharpening pencils and scrubbing the shower for a chance to see how it all went down. While working in the studio as an engineer, he rubbed elbows with the likes of Tom Werman, and Desmond Child. Before he knew it 1991 had come to pass and he had four gold records to his name.
Inspiration for his music stems from some of the most credible facets in the music industry. Ranging from Pink Floyd to James Taylor. “I’ve always liked artists that seem approachable like James Taylor. You feel lucky to spend time with them, lucky that they are sharing with you. Sharing personal triumphs and tragedies. ''Yeah I was lost too, but it’s ok''."
Lawrence’s debut album Rock Paper Scissors is a diverse group of songs ranging from pop to rock.
Take the first single ''Forevermore'', a song about going to hell and back with love, giving up on love, and then finding it again. “Just when you think there is no such thing as ''true love'', you get blind sided and there’s nothing you can do. You think you’ve seen it all, you think you’re jaded, your heart is dead and bam! you''re in love, it’s a beautiful thing.”
''Wasted'', an ode to the pop in pop/rock, is a song about being wrapped up in a lifestyle, letting time pass by, and not realizing it until after the fact. “I spent years of my life staying up all night, hanging out in Hollywood,drinking, smoking, partying and waiting through the morning until they started selling beer at Rock ''n'' Roll Ralph’s at 6am. When I came to my senses, years had passed and had to chalk it up to experience, just part of living. Some didn’t survive, some disappeared, broken rock stars to be. Lost. I survived to be able to look back and say it wasn’t a waste, it was a part of me, I lived.”
Rock Paper Scissors combines pop, rock, and country elements. The Meaning behind the title comes from envisioning rock, paper, and scissors as diverse individual elements that in the context of the traditional game illustrate a perfect balance, no element having more or less power than the others. “There’s beauty in it’s simplicity.”
