This week, I am joined by Lawrence Gowan, keyboardist & singer for Styx, and we’re talking about the stories behind some of the band’s biggest hits, and their musical evolution across the last 5 decades!
We also discuss: Lawrence’s solo hits; the dynamic in writing music as a solo artist vs. writing music with Styx; writing & recording with massive names in the progressive rock world (including Tony Levin, Jerry Marotta, & David Rhodes of Peter Gabriel’s touring band, Jon Anderson of Yes, and Alex Lifeson of Rush); & much more!
