Drummer and Composer Larnell Lewis has released a new recording 'SLICE OF LIFE,' out now.

"This collection of thoughts through music represents areas of growth or current development in my life and locks in on my experience as a father and husband. In one season, I will spend a lot of time with my kids playing games like hide and seek, making music, or helping them learn about life. In another season, I could be out on the road or working from home and need to remind my kids that I love them more than all the stars in the sky that appear while they sleep, and that I will be back to squeeze them and laugh," says Larnell Lewis.
