Liz Lawrence
is an acoustic singer/songwriter from London, England. Starting in the punk
rock and ska scene, she has been able to show an edgy style to her music.
She describes
her music as, “bittersweet, romantic, melodic, honest, homemade and
sentimental.”
“I like to think
I take the strength and emotion from the high octane records I grew myself up
on and use that energy on stage,” Lawrence said.
Performing
live has been the most enjoyable experience in her career, according to
Lawrence.
“I love the
studio process and the intricacies, I love production and arrangement and the
control, but the product is totally different to what you get taking the song
at face value and playing live,” Lawrence said. “On the tight-rope or the
trapeze, live performance leaves nowhere to hide, it heightens your senses,
it’s exhilarating and difficult and you will never play or see the same show
twice.”
Lawrence’s
latest album, “Bedroom Hero,” focuses on song writing.
“I wanted to
express the feelings of excitement, sacrifice and fragility that songwriters
subject themselves to in order to create something important to people,”
Lawrence said. “The album is personal but also universally aimed at the heart
of the listener through the emotions of my 18- and 19-year-old self.”
Lawrence has
been letting her music take her to new places.
“I’m just
enjoying playing and writing at the moment and working out the plan for the
album release too,” Lawrence said.
Her debut
album was released on March 30th in the Republic of Ireland.
