Review: Fearlessly combining jazz, metal, electronic, and Americana, Lawful Citizen is an explosive force on the Canadian jazz scene. The pendulum of their music swings from subtle beauty to relentless rage, driven by the musicality and sensitivity of the four musicians. They have become known for their unique grit while melting genres and destroying boundaries, while delivering a transcendent & mesmerizing experience.
