Biography
Larry's songs continue to challenge the status quo, confronting our complex relationship with the planet (Take What You Want From the World), political divisions (Feeling Lost in America), the loss of innocence (Woodstock Nation), and his response to Covid 19 (A Hit of Love). His guitar piece Nunca Mas was written in response to the atrocities inflicted on the citizens of Argentina by the Military in the 70’s. The title is the name of the committee formed to investigate the terrible acts of injustice, and translates as “never more.”
Larry began his recording career in the 80's releasing albums and singles that span a variety of genres including CCR, Pop, Rock, Country, Celtic/Roots, and Jazz. His 6th studio album In The Moonlight sees Larry returning to his folk roots. Upcoming plans include two follow-up folk CDs Lessen The Blue and Thru a Dark Lens (both coming in 2024)
In The Moonlight includes a new version of Gathering of Friends, a song of good-bye that has been a listener favorite since its release on his 1997 album Caught In The Light. A re-release of that album with new takes and alternate mixes is slated to coincide with the album's 25th anniversary.

In The Moonlight
Larry’s latest release displays his ability to weave stories with moving visual imagery. Whether singing about relationships, world issues, or life in general there is something for everyone to ponder in Larry’s superb guitar playing and singing.
Focus Cuts:
Good For You – a feel-good vibe is enhanced with a vocal lick that would work best in large groups of people – Pre-Covid of course! Just add beer.
Gathering of Friends – A song in three part harmony about saying goodbye with the hope that we will meet again. Features Daniel Galessiere (Formerly of Cadence) and Neil Donell (Lead singer Chicago)
Everything to Me – Written for consideration in a teen “Journey” movie. This is Larry’s Reggae-tinged ball-of-fun version featuring his usual sweet falsetto. Think Napolean Dynamite and you’ll get where this one is headed.
