“Singer-songwriter/funky rootsy folk rock” may not roll off the tongue or physically fit into the genre column on iTunes for that matter, but it’s the best way to describe the music of Massachusetts-based Sawyer Lawson. As music blog Red Line Roots puts it, "He is a master at blending multi-genres together into his sound." Centered around a sturdy backbone of acoustic guitar, and sometimes colored with mandolin, banjo and fiddle, Lawson’s material has an unmistakable folk/Americana aesthetic. But with his funky rhythmic grooves, unconventional chord voicings, and reflective lyrics, his sound is something decidedly more contemporary. His songwriting may call to mind artists like Amos Lee and Martin Sexton.


‘Shine,’ his debut full-length album, (released March 2015) stays true to its title with its uplifting tone. A multi-instrumentalist from a young age, Lawson plays a number of different instruments throughout the record including guitar, drums, mandolin and fiddle. He performs regularly in the Boston area and has played throughout the Northeast from Bates College in Maine to New York City’s Sidewalk Café and Rockwood Music Hall.
