Restless, creative, prolific and willing to grow up in public, Richard Lawson has never shied away from exploring the outer reaches in his musical quest.
From the farthest strains of banjo driven rustic folk to the cutting edge of Cubase driven electronic synth pop his overriding love of melody, rhythm and harmony has crowned his output of 6 LPs and 6 EPs and soundtrack work in the times since the demise of the ‘Lime Spiders’.

Now there is a new LP of ‘Music at Night; Selected Ambient Works 1994-2014’ being released November 2022 including 6 re-workings and 6 unreleased songs of which the first single ‘Firefly’ is set for a September 1 release. The album will also be available as a CD at shows and on Bandcamp as well as the usual streaming platforms .

Richard is the triple ARIA nominated former drummer for Aust Punk rock legends The Lime Spiders and is a multi-instrumentalist, composer and teacher of over 300 students since leaving the band and has explored all musical possibilities from 70’s Art Rock, Folk to Electronica and Ambient/Classical crossover including soundtrack work.
Richard has been performing and touring regularly on the South Coast of NSW and plans are also under way for his works to be scored, performed and recorded by the esteemed classical ensemble ‘The Acacia Quartet’ later this year, with applications to several major classical music festivals in the pipeline.

‘Music at Night; Selected Ambient Works’ will be available November 2022 and the first single ‘Firefly’ is available September 1 on Spotify/YouTube/Apple music.
