NASHVILLE – February 2, 2012 – Lawrence Music Group celebrated it’s one-year anniversary Wednesday (2/1) by entertaining to a packed house at Nashville’s famous Bluebird Café for an evening of words and music presented by ASCAP.

The round featured artists and writers of the LMG team who have joined forces with Tracy Lawrence’s record label, publishing and artist management company during the year such as American Idol’s Lacey Brown, Rick Huckaby, Jonny Houlihan, and producer/songwriter Flip Anderson.

Lawrence shared the stage with LMG team performing some of the hits he has penned as well as his just released new single “PILLS,” which is a tongue and cheek song about dependency on medication.

“It’s been an exciting year for us,” said Tracy Lawrence. “We founded the company on the core principal that music would be the foundation for everything we do. It’s important even in this digital age we continue to provide opportunities for artists and songwriters to create music, which is the cornerstone to the Nashville music community.”

Lawrence has enjoyed success this year with his critically acclaimed debut on the LMG label, The Singer. “PILLS” is the second single from the project released to radio this week and is already receiving great reviews.

Lacey Brown, Rick Huckaby, and Jonny Houlihan are scheduled to release new music in 2012.
