S.R. Laws

“My father would bring home garbage bags full of old 45 records that must have been tossed out of from someone’s old collection at a time they no longer needed their soothing sonic waves. Now, there they were, in front of me and I needed them. Some silenced from the weight of garbage and grime. Others pristine without a scratch. I lived at the turntables as I rummaged through discovering what’s next.” S.R. Laws is an American singer/songwriter and recording artist from Northern California. Inspired by storytellers John Hiatt, Rodney Crowell and songwriters Chuck Prophet and Ron Sexton. He filters ideas through early life experiences wandering train tracks through wheat fields and the smells of ripening fruit as they lift up out of the orchards of his hometown Marysville, Ca. S.R. 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 a solo touring artist and singer songwriter 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.
