Everyone Could Be Green Light



“A Sea of Tiny Lights is undoubtedly the most impressive work of Lawr’s career…tackling countless numbers of genres flawlessly…he continues gracefully to be one of Canada’s most underrated songwriters.”

“A mysterious and magnificent pastiche of baroque art-rock pleasures…straightforward yet irresistibly poppy roots-rock…strongly reminiscent of Wilco's most unadorned Summerteeth excursions…what's clear from Tiny Lights is that another Canadian musical invasion is around the corner.”
