| The Lawson lads celebrating their debut album going gold |
Pop rock band Lawson are reassured that all their hard work is finally paying off. By Kayleigh Peters.
Andy Brown (lead vocals, acoustic guitar), Ryan Fletcher (backing vocals, bass guitar), Joel Peat (backing vocals, lead guitar) and Adam Pitts (drums) have come together from various parts of the country to form the new British, pop rock band known as Lawson. The band were named after neurosurgeon David Lawson, who performed lifesaving surgery on lead singer Andy Brown, who was diagnosed with a brain tumour at the age of 19 that left him deaf in one ear and almost blind.
After their ground-breaking debut album (Chapman Square) reached number 6 in the UK charts, It’s no surprise that they set their sights on more. They’ve recently been working on their second album Chapman Square / Chapter II—a progression of Chapman Square—with new material including acoustic recordings of our favourites including crowd pleaser Taking Over Me, which literally has taken over me.
Their newest single Juliet (debuting at No. 3) is definitely one of my favourites. The sound of the lead guitar gave the song the edgy pop rock feel and is bound to get you up on your feet or brighten up your boring journey when you catch yourself singing.
Since seeing them live I would definitely recommend going to see them, as the atmosphere at their concerts is just incredible with them even jumping into the crowd, and who doesn’t like watching four hot guys rock out?!
Who knows what the future holds for these guys? All I know is that it’s certainly looking bright, so watch out!
