Hi, Beginning in the Late 80's as a songwriter wanting to learn hoe to make a 'Hit Record' I made my way in to a career in recording studios. I managed to engineer on a collection of gold and platinum records in the first few years. All along I have been also writing and recording my own compositions. Many of these I performed Drums, Bass, Guitars, Keys, Lead vocals and Backing vocals while also recording and mixing as well. More recently I have been releasing some of those roles to the best musicians and engineers in the business to concentrate on the song. I have a real desire currently to work with an artist to help realise their vision. I can send a Disco link to my catalogue or you can find some songs on Lawrenceethan.com. You can find a link to my Discography on my CV. Let's play. Lawrence
