Alternative and Christian Rock music is one of the most appreciated genres in the current music industry. Very few artists have the ability to present the authentic essence of these genres with ease while conveying the emotions rightly. Mike Lawson is one such artist who is capable of doing that and with each record that he put out, he proved that. Through several musical releases, the artist has proved it is his talent and hard work that allowed him to reach this level of artistic maturity. Increasing his reach with every release, the artist has now released another track, ‘Darius Rucker -Alright’ and on YouTube, it is already creating strong waves.
The track is extremely well-made and composed and it has the capability to become the most-streamed track of the artist’s discography. It also has the ability to put his name out on the world music stage and get him the recognition he fully deserves. Lawson is a seasoned musician who has been doing covers as well as original music for long. Hailing from Baltimore, Maryland, the artist has always found pleasure in making music, especially since music has been his passion since childhood. Taking influence and inspiration from the legend of the industry, the artist started on this journey and has been dedicated to his true passion ever since.
Mike Lawson started with music at just the tender age of fifteen. He would dabble in drums here and there and played in a few High School Bands. After finishing high school he went to join the United States Army where he met various kinds of people and some of them were musicians. It was then when the artist started playing guitar and singing in recreation centers on Military bases and it sparked his interest even more. After coming back from the Army, Lawson began to do local gigs and work with different bands. Although he has loved playing with the bands, going solo has always been a dream of his that he wanted to achieve. It was that dream that jump-started his career as a solo musician and inspired him to release such an intriguing and influential discography.
‘Darius Rucker -Alright’ is a cover song that was originally released in 2008, from Rucker’s album ‘Learn to Live’. Although the song is a beautiful composition on its own, Lawson has given his own touch to the song, elevating the composition to the next level. Released under Pernell Records, the song carries a certain rawness that becomes its main attraction. The singer has also given great vocals, complementing the beautiful lyrics of the track. You can listen to the song on YouTube, along with some of his previous releases; ‘Brantley Gilbert You don’t Know her like I do’, ‘Incubus Megalomaniac’, ‘Concert – Covid 19 Sessions’, ‘Maroon 5 -She Will Be Loved’, ‘Tauren Wells- Hills and Valleys’, etc. Stay connected to the singer on Instagram, and Facebook.
