SPB: How important is it to constantly push boundaries and reinvent while being true to yourself and your fan base?
Lawrie: I think it's crucial to be true to yourself musically, it all shows in the music. Listeners can hear if an artist isn't being true to themselves. If pushing boundaries and reinvention are what comes naturally then that's just what you do. Listeners are there for the journey if the music reaches them. I don't think it matters if an artist is just perfecting the same formula over and over, or constantly in flux; either way some listeners will come and go and some are there for the whole ride. You can hate a record one day then love it the next, depending on where you were at when you heard it. If the music stands up, people will get it eventually.
