New York City's newest "it-band", Lawrence, played their first Irish gig in Vicar Street. Coming off of a massive opening slot for the Jonas Brothers 60+ show tour in the U.S. last year, the group brought their own Family Business Tour to a new audience. Although the eight-piece are not all blood related, keyboardist and vocalist, Clyde Lawrence, says that this is his "...chosen family". The night was kicked off by Fort Worth, Texas native, Alex Lambert.
