About This Episode

Three Siblings, Two Grammys,
Broadway, and a Big Moment.

Clyde and Gracie Lawrence join Elmo for a rare conversation, and for the first time ever, they are joined by their little brother Linus, who collaborated on the Grammy-nominated arrangement that put Lawrence in the spotlight this year. It is a first-of-its-kind sibling interview, and it is as honest, grounded, and joyful as the music they make together.

Lawrence has spent years building one of the most intentional sounds in modern music, and right now they are having a major moment. They are the house band for All Out: Comedy About Ambition on Broadway, Grammy-nominated for Best Arrangement, and Gracie is coming off a breakout Broadway year of her own, including a Tony nomination for Just in Time and a Grammy nomination for Best Musical Theater Album for the Just in Time cast recording.

They talk about the road to this chapter, how they think about arrangement and feel, what the Broadway grind actually looks like day to day, their family dynamic as collaborators, and what it means to be three siblings building something together at the highest level. This is an honest, grounded, adorable conversation between three artists who have earned every part of where they are.
