Lawrence Rothman Wants to Lift Up Those Who ‘Struggle With Gender Identity’ on New Album

Lawrence Rothman released single 'Poster Child,' co-written with Jason Isbell, and announced album 'The Plow That Broke the Plains,' out April 26.

On Wednesday, the musician released their single “Poster Child,” co-written with Jason Isbell, and announced their upcoming album, The Plow That Broke the Plains on April 26. “ The Plow That Broke the Plains is me not hiding behind any persona or mask and just being myself and putting that uncensored self into the words and recordings no matter how painful the confrontation was,” Rothman said in a press statement about the LP. On “Poster Child,” Rothman stays true to that goal as they look back on their life’s tribulations, including the time they were shot at outside of a club in 2005 for their gender expression.
