Biography: (from the Beatleweek 2003 Programme)

Having spent the last few years astounding audiences in America with his likeness to Mr McCartney, LawrenceMacca, as he is known in his adopted home across the pond, is elated to be back in Liverpool this year.

Lawrence turns heads everywhere he goes, such is the similarity to Paul, and no doubt he will attract quite a bit of attention over the weekend. In October 1999, he attracted the attention of McCartney himself and was subsequently requested to ‘double’ for Paul in the promotional video for No Other Baby. He spent two days filming on location and even had a ‘jam session’ with the man. So next time you see that video, pay extra attention on the long-shots and you might spot Lawrence!

Lawrence has been a fan of The Beatles since childhood, and made his Macca singing debut when he got up in a club for a laugh in the late 70’s and sang ‘Mull of Kintyre’. He made his first official public appearance as a Paul McCartney impersonator in 1993 on the television show ‘Stars in their Eyes’, which changed his life. He spent several years touring with a Lennon impersonator Gary Gibson, and as the Anthology of the Beatles, the pair performed at Beatleweek several times.

Now he’s back where he belongs - he’s armed with an acoustic guitar and that famous thumbs-up sign, and he knows how to use them!! LawrenceMacca has come to rock you this weekend!
