Description
The Lawrence Peters Outfit play un-ruined country music, a term Lawrence coined to describe the band’s original, deep-rooted, honky tonk sound.
They were 2019 and 2018 Ameripolitan Award nominees, in the Best Honky Tonk Group category, and two time winners of the “Best Country And Western Entertainer” trophy (Chicago Music Awards). They were also voted “Best Country Band” in The Chicago Reader’s “Best Of 2022” poll.
Their LP “What You Been Missin’” is cited as one of the essential Chicago country and folk albums, in Mark Guarino’s 2023 book “Country & Midwestern” (University Of Chicago Press).
Lauded for his lead vocal on "The Old Black Hen", for the watershed Songs: Ohia- Magnolia Electric Company album, here Peters leads the "Outfit" through his own finely crafted originals, and cherry-picked classics. The band is a super-group of Chi-Town pickers, including Matt Gandurski on lead guitar, John Huber on rhythm guitar, and Josh Piet on upright bass.

Country
The Lawrence Peters Outfit is a scrappy honky tonk band from Chicago, boasting a mutt pedigree as long as any you’ll find in the city’s country music scene. The group’s sound is deep-rooted in generations of country music tradition, with debts owed to Webb Pierce, Jimmy Martin, Hank Williams Sr., Harlan Howard, Dwight Yoakam and Ola Belle Reed. Lawrence Peters sings and plays snare drum, leading the band through his finely crafted originals, and cherry-picked classics. The Outfit includes Matt Gandurski on lead guitar, Dave Sisson on rhythm guitar, and Josh Piet on upright bass. Their debut album What You Been Missin’ was released nationally on January 17th, 2012, and the Lawrence Peters Songbook was released a month later.
