LAWRENCE, the GRAMMY-nominated soul-pop band co-fronted by brother/sister duo Clyde and Gracie Lawrence, will perform three nights of its Staycation festival at the Brooklyn Paramount from Thursday, October 29 through Saturday, October 31. The run will feature themed nights, non-repeating sets spanning four albums, debuts of new music and surprise musical guests.
The band is coming off a summer as special guests on Charlie Puth's Whatever's Clever World Tour and just released 'My First Real Love (acoustic-ish) ft. Jonathan Groff.' The duet sees Gracie and Groff reinvent a fan favorite from their Tony-nominated performances as Connie Francis and Bobby Darin in Broadway's JUST IN TIME. It's the latest single from Lawrence's upcoming collaborative EP, Office Party, which also includes 'Feel Like That (ft. JP Saxe)' and 'Rain Check (ft. Quinn XCII).'
Known for their high-energy, keyboard-driven sound, tight horns and explosive vocals, the eight-piece band's live show is a full-on party. Staycation takes that further: three nights in NY and LA with non-repeating sets, theme nights and surprise special guests. More information can be found at https://lawrencetheband.com/staycation2026.
Night 1 (10/29) is themed Movie Night, with openers Aron! and Jon Lampley. Night 2 (10/30) is themed 60s & 70s, with openers Emma Nissen and The Stowaways. Night 3 (10/31) is themed Murder Mystery, with openers Fastball and Sam Greenfield. Murder Mystery is a big production: a 'whodunit' storytelling narrative alongside the concert, on Halloween night. All three nights will have surprise guests.
