Meet Bryce Lamar: Music Producer, Vocalist

We had the good fortune of connecting with Bryce Lamar and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Bryce, what led you to pursuing a creative path professionally?
I believe it’s because I haven’t been thinking as much in terms of a career. So there was never a conscious choice. I have just always been really passionate about music since I was a little kid, and kept going with it because I was in love with it. I am still in love with it. So the career has come about somewhat naturally. 

Please tell us more about your career. We’d love to hear what sets you apart from others, what you are most proud of or excited about. How did you get to where you are today professionally. Was it easy? If not, how did you overcome the challenges? What are the lessons you’ve learned along the way. What do you want the world to know about you or your brand and story?
I don’t ever know what to say about music. I am always so happy to share it with people. I love the look in peoples’ eyes when they can feel it, and I can feel it and we are together in the feeling of it. This sort of feeling extends beyond music as well, but music is a language that we all relate to very naturally, so it is one of the easiest vehicles for this type of togetherness in oneness. If I ask myself ‘How did I get to where I am now’? I am not exactly sure. It was this, and then that and then this, over and over again. I think I must have made a wrong turn somewhere : ) So many lessons have been learned and challenges overcome. Of course there must be many stories about loss and love and beating the odds and failure. What is funny though, is that right now, I am just here. Even without any stories about anything I am still here. simply here. This next question reminds me of a beautiful little story about Mahatma Gandhi that I heard from a recorded lecture of Ram Dass. A journalist asks Gandhi as his train is leaving, something such as “What message would you send to the people of India?”. Just as the train was beginning to move, he scribbled something on a crumpled piece of paper, and handed it to the journalist. It read “My life is my message.”

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
The first place I thought of is Joshua Tree. Maybe we would try and get a group of people together and take our tents and some firewood and whatever supplies we would want. It is a beautiful wide-open atmosphere that always has a profound effect on my whole system. Another idea is to go to the beach. Maybe we could go surfing at El Porto in Manhattan Beach, and get some breakfast in the area afterwards. Also we could go for a hike in Topanga Canyon or Altadena. There are many great places to hike actually. Of course there are also some great music venues in LA, although they are all pretty much closed down for the moment. I have always really enjoyed going to the Blue Whale in downtown LA for all kinds of eclectic music in a nice sitting-and-listening environment. And if we felt like dancing all night, there are some incredible underground warehouse parties happening every once in a while with live bands, DJ’s, live painting, vendors, performance art and whatever else. or if all else fails (or succeeds) we could always go to Disneyland ; )

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
All the incredible music teachers I’ve had, my spiritual teachers, my school teachers, my parents, my siblings, all the amazing creatures of the universe
