I’m MC Lars. I invented a genre where Edgar Allan Poe meets hip-hop, then somehow charted in Australia with it. For 20+ years I’ve played everywhere from Carnegie Hall to the Vans Warped Tour and made records with Nas, Snoop Dogg, Weird Al, KRS-One, Insane Clown Posse, K.Flay, and T-Pain. Rolling Stone, MTV, SPIN, NPR, and CNN have all tried to explain what I do. Key albums: The Graduate, The Edgar Allan Poe LP, and This Gigantic Robot Kills, all on my own label, Horris Records.
I release new music monthly on Patreon, play live shows and festivals year-round, and lead songwriting and media literacy workshops in schools nationwide.
Through the Lit-Hop Academy, I work one-on-one with artists, writers, and creators to finish real projects. Spots are limited, come make something.
