Reveals Family Business Track List and Support for Biggest-Ever Tour

June 6, 2024 - Lawrence — the NYC soul-pop 8-piece fronted by Gracie and Clyde Lawrence — just revealed the tracklist to their fourth studio album, Family Business(out June 21 on Jon Bellion’s label Beautiful Mind Records) and released the album’s title track. 

"“Family Business” acts as a theme song of sorts for the whole album, and pulls together a lot of our favorite influences from soul and Motown music to Broadway show tunes to sitcom theme songs," says Lawrence on their new release. "It’s our tongue-in-cheek celebration of the unusual operation that Lawrence is — a band full of friends and family staying up late every night to not only make music and play shows, but also learn how to run a DIY business together." Listen to "Family Business" here: https://stem.ffm.to/familybusiness

In the lead-up to releasing Family Business, Lawrence has hit some amazing career milestones: they just opened for The Rolling Stones at MetLife Stadium, will be featured on a song on Meghan Trainor’s forthcoming album, and performed their collaborative single “Wherever I Go” with Jacob Collier at a sold-out Radio City Music Hall and Kings Theater in NYC as well as The Greek in Los Angeles. Plus, Gracie, an accomplished actress, will be a series regular in the upcoming third season of Mindy Kaling and Justin Noble’s Sex Lives of College Girls on MAX, playing the character of Kacey. 

Today, Lawrence also announced the opening acts for their biggest-ever headline tour this summer and fall, which includes Radio City Music Hall (low ticket warning) and a sold-out Wiltern in Los Angeles. It marks their first tour since opening 60+ dates for The Jonas Brothers in 2023, and several other shows in North America and overseas have already sold out. They will be joined by Jesse Gold, Jukebox The Ghost, Lindsey Lomis and Stephen Day.  Full itinerary below.

As eight longtime friends turned entrepreneurs managing their own tours, running their own merch business, engineering their own sound, and staging their own headline tours, Lawrence is more than a family band: they’re an entire DIY organization, and Family Business is their direct answer to the band’s most asked question: “what’s it like to work alongside your sibling?” 

Alongside the business-themed “Promotion,” there are songs that directly explore Lawrence’s DIY ethos and their feelings about growing up together as a creative family duo. “Hip Replacement” asserts self-confidence in the face of the hype-driven Hollywood game, while “Death of Me” explores feelings of burnout, while “Do” tackles the challenge of trusting your instincts. Family Business also features three recently released singles, “i’m confident that i’m insecure,” “23,” and “Guy I Used To Be.” Watch their trademark “acoustic-ish” renditions of each track here. 

With a winning rendition of pop music that has earned them over 60 million streams on Spotify on their 2021 album Hotel TV — whose lead single “Don’t Lose Sight” hit #33 on Top 40 radio — Lawrence has graced the stages of major festivals including Coachella, Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, Firefly, Summerfest, and others, plus sold out three consecutive nights at Brooklyn Steel in 2022 and been featured on Jimmy Kimmel, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Today Show, Tamron Hall and more.
