Orleans, whose critically acclaimed music and memorable harmonies are loved
the world over. Tens of millions of people around the world instantly

A superb multi-instrumentalist, Larry is equally at home on keyboards or

talents have been featured on tours and album releases by such diverse
artists as Graham Parker, Michael Franks, Italian pop star Brando,
Lulu, Felix Cavaliere, and Livingston Taylor. Recently he contributed
his unique style of Hammond B-3 organ on CDs released in 1997 by the
Screaming Cheetah Wheelies and Blues Traveler.
In 1996, Larry produced his first solo album outside of
Orleans, The UnHerd's
Looking for
the Light. With David Sancious, Tony Levin, Terry
Silverlight and other world class artists Larry created a wonderful
collection of meaningful compositions. All
CD sales profits and 100% of
Larry's publishing are donated to Sunshine for HIV Kids, which he and wife Patricia, a Physician's
Assistant, co-founded in 1993. The symbiotic combination of Larry's musical
career and charitable efforts is something to which he is deeply committed.
Here's a comment from one of the beneficiaries of Sunshine's work:

In September 1997, Larry was awarded the Shining Star
Award for his work through Sunshine
for HIV Kids. The annual award was given by Hospice, ARCS of the
Hudson Valley and Angel Food East at their Night of Stars
event. It was a highlight of Larry's year and indeed, his life.
Larry's just finished his latest CD as singer,
songwriter, multi-instrumentalist in his own right "Handmade"
features insightful, powerful and romantic lyrics and composition which is
bound to delight fans of music with strong melodies and textural substance.
