I play guitar, bass and drums. Music is a serious love of mine. I've written 40 or 50 songs thus far on guitar and put words to a little over half of those. I hope to learn piano one day.

I play out quite a bit. I live near Akron and we have been really lucky to have some amazing music around here in the last decade or so, the most notable of which is the Black Keys. If you've never heard of them, go listen. They're awesome and good people.

http://www.myspace.com/charleslawrencemusic is my MySpace. There are some videos on there too from the first time I ever played solo. I'm not a natural singer... only started doing that about 4 years ago, but I get better and better the more I do it. I hope to be in a band again someday, but for now this is satisfying my need to make music. I'm being patient about the rest. I'm releasing a 5 song demo this summer. 4 of the songs are on there.

At the bottom of my MySpace are three other musicians that are near and dear to my heart. Jessica Lea Mayfield has been on tour for a year and was recently in Rolling Stone Magazine. She is from Kent and I've played with her a few times. Mike Lenz is a blues guitar nutcase and a local legend. Sean Benjamin is somewhat of a regular on Rover's Morning Glory and makes baby makin' music. Definitely 3 good ones to check out.

I'm digging some of the other projects I'm seeing on here!
