In the tradition of balladeer poets like Jackson Browne, Neil Young and Jerry Jeff Walker, Lawrence Lynn is a singer/songwriter who simply writes and performs songs that move people whether they're unique folk-rock, rock, pop, country or occasionally a little blues. As one fan put it, "His voice takes me to a higher place, spiritually." He has performed in the Los Angeles area in such venues as The Talking Stick Coffee Lounge, Arnie's Cafe and Coffee House and Borders Books. He also has performed in Pensacola, Florida in such places as Peg Leg Pete's Oyster House, The Drowsy Poet Coffee House, Goatlips Deli & Dinner House and the Pensacola Bay Brewery. His song with lyrics by Bara Byrnes, "The Wisdom Is Shown (Memoryman)" will be featured in the future upcoming film Memoryman II. Lawrence received an Honorable Mention Award in the SONG OF THE YEAR CONTEST for the song "Dynamite Mama" from his 4th CD SONGWRITER. Song of the Year receives entries from all over the world and only the top songwriters receive a Honorable Mention placement in the songwriting competition. He has also received an Runner Up Award in the SONG OF THE YEAR CONTEST 2016 for his song "Rolling On" which will be part of his soon-to-be-released 6th CD. His first CD UNTRAPPED was released in early 2010 which featured the songs "Love Is Still the Key" and "Ain't No Hero Blues (very popular songs on Internet Radio)." SERIOUSLY UNSERIOUS, his second CD featuring the songs "Senorita" and "The Ice Cream Man," was released in later 2010. His third CD UNLEASHED was released in May 2012. The 3rd album UNLEASHED is well titled, as the songs speak for themselves like a big dog let joyfully loose from his leash. Lawrence's 4th CD SONGWRITER was released at the end of May 2013, and for his fans, it was a greatly anticipated event. With the theme song of the upcoming movie Memoryman as the first song on the CD, it sets the pace for the rest. The songs range from love songs to an anti-nuclear war protest song to even one about the homeless. His 5th CD FROM DOWN HOME was completed in May 2015 and includes the haunting song "Day at the Beach" and "The Child in Me" and was totally mixed and mastered by himself.
