Listen to solo piano music by Chad Lawson.
I don’t know why it took me so long to discover Chad Lawson’s music, but I’m glad I did and want to share it with others too. I find it so beautiful and relaxing, and great background for focus work. In fact I created a playlist with almost 5 hours of his music that I hope you enjoy too.
His latest album was a soundtrack for a special LORE podcast Episode 46: Dark Conclusions for Halloween last year. I’m creating another post with more information about the Lore podcast, book, TV series, and tour.
There is a wonderful interview article with background about his journey, which includes a very interesting video, at MusicBed. There’s another article from last year on the Gramophone blog on his thoughts about classical music and streaming.
