Renowned David Rodriguez says that Larry Lewis Moon has "... got the grit, more than anyone I've heard so far". With a powerful rhythm and certain urgency in his voice, the words to Larry's songs relate to past and present experiences, referring to himself as well as others, places still around and long since gone.
A resident of Houston Texas since his birth in 1975, Larry Lewis Moon has played guitar since the age of 10. As time progressed, he began to see songwriting as a means of expressing exactly what was on his mind. It wasn't long before he was putting pen to paper, and his fingers to the strings.
Larry's musical style has been labeled as "Texas Roots", "Americana", "Alternative Folk", or "Contemporary Country", but it really is much more than that; it's an anthology of words from the heart, music of the soul, and food for thought.
Larry's approach to the local music scene was a long time coming, dealing with many personal issues, including the death of his father in 1999. Larry began writing music at the age of 14, and slowly found his way to many private weddings and events for friends and family alike.
His songs were much more divergent during his younger days, with a wider variety of styles in his music. Soon Larry was presented his first chance at musical exposure as a strolling minstrel at the Texas Renaissance Festival in 1994. Nevertheless, Larry felt his true inspiration to be in Contemporary Country Music. His tour of performing with TRF lasted two years, though he can still be heard to each year strumming and singing for friends by the fires of TRF campsites.
Playing the open mikes at venues such as McGonigel's Mucky Duck and Anderson Fair, Larry honed his fashion of songwriting, progressing through several band projects that came and went. One of the more popular songs that Larry has written is "Wrecking Ball", covered by Singer T.C. Smythe. Consequently, it was the first of several tunes that have been covered locally over the years. One of his strongest influences is songwriting & collaborating buddy Dan Ford from Nashville.
Writing songs from the top and at the bottom of the barrel, and anywhere in between, Larry continues to sing and write music as one of Houston's most indomitable songwriters. Promoting both in Houston and Nashville, Larry has a sound as true as Texas, and more importantly, one that tells a story - one song at a time. When asked if he thinks he will be covered Nationally, Larry is always quick to tell you - "It isn't about if, it's about when. I'm thinking... soon."
