Lemuel Lartey (L.A.R) is an independent Christian singer-songwriter and producer from North-West London. Every lyric and instrumental is crafted from the heart of his bedroom studio, with an eclectic approach to music production. Raised on the rich melodies of soul and jazz—thanks to his late father’s passion for these genres — L.A.R has developed a deep love for music in all its forms.
From an early age, the car rides filled with smooth rhythms and heartfelt instruments left a lasting impact, inspiring him to explore a wide range of musical styles while keeping soul and jazz at the core of his sound. His music is a fusion of genres, drawing influences from everything he’s loved—from alternative R&B to indie-soul and other genres that speak to the heart. This diversity allows him to create songs that feel cinematic, blending intricate melodies with raw emotion.
At the heart of his artistry is a deep devotion to God. Each song is a reflection of His glory, presence, and love. Whether through moments of doubt or overwhelming peace, L.A.R’s music serves as a reminder of God’s constant presence in our lives. His aim is simple yet powerful: to glorify God and share His love through the universal language of music.
With every track, he invites listeners to experience a connection with the God, whether they feel His presence deeply or are in a season of searching. After all, "L.A.R" stands for "Love and Reason", which is why he aims for his music to speak directly to the soul.
