Laurence is a veteran jazz pianist with a Master’s degree from the University of Miami. But on “Surrounded”, his evolution as singer-songwriter is more apparent than ever as he blurs genre lines. JAZZIZ Magazine chief editor Michael Fagien says Laurence, like Stevie Wonder, Paul Simon, or Sting, has the ability to transcend jazz’s traditional boundaries. He is a huge fan of the album. Laurence continues to share his music while he is working on a second album. His band includes some of the most highly-respected musicians in the industry, including Tito Puente and Paquito D’Rivera, Ruben blades, Chayenne and Juan Luis Guerra. CDBaby
