"I was reminded of the widely literate playfulness of Arthur, the Kinks album,
and also the nontraditional rhythms and changes in Syd-era Floyd."

MY BIOGRAPHY is an original rock band Laurence formed late 2007 with keyboardist Melinda Ingalls, drummer Tony Archer, and bassist Katsumi Nagae. He'd worked with Tony before in
their band GORDON GIGANTIC, back in the mid-90's. Melinda answered his craigs' List
ad for keyboardist, and Katsumi was a good friend whom he'd worked with in film,
and their quirky alt folk duo, MILLER & KATSUMI.
2008 saw MY BIO beginning to play out, recording a 4-song demo, and shooting a "live"
community television music video. In 2009 they struggled producing their first CD,
under less than desirable conditions with just a few tunes in the can. Plans
are to shoot more community TV music videos this summer.
In short, Laurence rediscovered the joys of a "live" band. His quirky pop songwriting takes
on a far greater human edge with other musicians playing in real time, than his
more polished solo recordings produced on his own.
