Musique en direct – Lawrence Maxwell

Join us for an unforgettable night of storytelling and song with Lawrence Maxwell, an award-winning Prince Edward Island singer-songwriter whose music blends folk, bluegrass, and alt-country with heartfelt honesty.

Before launching his music career, Lawrence served in the Royal Canadian Navy, where he began writing the songs that shaped his debut album, Not Your Outlaw (2018). As a result, the release earned him a Music PEI Award and quickly raised his national profile. He followed it with Almost Natural (2020), which received an ECMA nomination and led to international showcases, including AmericanaFest UK.

Most recently, Lawrence released Ballad of Miles, earning seven Music PEI Award nominations, widespread airplay on SiriusXM, CBC, and Country Hits Radio UK, and praise from Roots Music Canada as “the first great Canadian alt-country album of 2022.”

Ultimately, with comparisons to John Prine and Merle Haggard, Lawrence Maxwell delivers timeless, deeply human songs—folk told straight and country sung from the heart.
