Dave Lawrence is an American musical artist and has been called a “back-to-soul” singer/songwriter.
His roots are in Country, Folk, Classical and Classic Rock. His songwriting and performances are
Pop/Rock compositions with Folk/Country dynamics, and have been compared to the stylings of James Taylor and the Eagles.
Born in a working class neighborhood and more comfortable in denim, Dave is the result of a family
history in music. Growing up, many of his relatives played Bluegrass and Country music. However,
his greatest enjoyment came from writing and performing songs that touch on universal truths.
His guitar playing has been called acoustic honesty and his distinctive picking style is a
combination of Classical and Bluegrass and is uniquely enjoyable. His emotional musical style
is a result of growing up during an era of more sensitive songwriting, when songwriters were
storytellers, and artists like Jim Croce, Cat Stevens, and Gordon Lightfoot introduced a more
introspective approach to music.
