My father would bring home garbage bags full of old 45’s that must have been from someone’s old collection, tossed out at a time they no longer needed the soothing waves that I was about to hear. Now they were here, in front of me, exposed. Some silenced from the weight of garbage grime. Others pristine without a scratch. I live at the turntables as I rummage through discovering what’s next.
S.R. Laws is an American singer/songwriter, musician and recording artist from Northern California. Inspired by storytellers like John Hiatt, Rodney Crowell and songwriters Chuck Prophet and Ron Sexton filtered through early life experiences wandering the train tracks through wheat fields and smelling the fruit ripening in the orchards in his hometown Marysville, Ca.
He took the pilgrimage to Austin in the early 90's towing two suitcases and $500 in the bank and began to cut his teeth as a songwriter among the fertile landscape of the “ Live Music Capital of the World ”. The thriving music scene yielded a bounty of musical and life experiences like no other. Each passing season allowed provisions of a burgeoning sound to mingle with wry lyrics, energetic rhythms, and memorable melodies!
As the bandleader for the West Coast rock group The Heartsleeves. S.R. serves up an original style of Rock, Roll, Rhythm, and Soul. It is through uplifting songs and heartfelt-inspiring performances that allows him and the characters in his songs to connect with any toe-tapping crowd.
His new release “A.M. Sessions” is out now and available at his live shows and on all platforms.
