Born Lars Penstoft Andersen. Has led a simple, lowkey and lowbudget life in two trailerhomes and a homestudio since 2003. (1993-2003 in a smaaaal countryhouse) Sole writing, singing/playing, recording and producing own (old&new) songs.
Has worked full time with music since high school. After 1974 mainly as a freelancer/sideman/studio/sessionplayer for other, mostly unknown, artists/bands/producers..... but at the same time, on a never ending, lone search for the perfect song, continuouesly (re)writing/(re)recording own music in home studio. Primarily to please own ears/self....
Today a huge, unpublished cataloque of songs and instrumentals. All genuine and original, each track with its own place in time and space. Typically based on frequent, ongoing improvisations on both acoustic/electric pianos/synths and guitars. The lyrics are heartfelt, influenced by own life, .....100% original... (the I in the lyrics not always 100% LPA, though.)
All registered by the danish KODA.

"Hey, if you found this myspace page, it's your lucky day. This guy has some fantastic songs. Just listen and enjoy. Man, he should be world famous! Great everything - ideas, playing, singing, production. I..m a fan."Ed Williams
The Fame Games Indieradio (1.8 mill listeners worldwide):"Great job, Lars - your song ME AND MY DOG has an eternal place in our charts - and in our hearts! All of our previous comments still stand. This is a potential hit, given that you can find a way to make "small" production adjustments to the whole thing. Even as it stands, though, it's one of our all-time favorites!Ever heard a cool Blues lyric in a modern pop song? Wonder no more - and just listen to this one. Excellent song and a great production, even if it is just a little bit dated in its overall sound. A well-deserved double Track of the Week winner, though!"
An american publisher:"....you maintain a unique quality that really gives you your own “signature soundâ€, and thats what we are looking for. You can rest assured that S.B., myself or P.D. will be in touch........

"Wow Lars!THICK!What a cool and excellent sound. It's a modern era Joe Walsh vibe. Awesome.Thanks for introducing yourself. It made my day.Sincerely Yours, Greg MusicLoad.ComMusicLoad at MusicLoad.Com is the "Original" MusicLoad
American songwriter/artist: "I gotta tell you man, ..WALK ON BOARD.. is one of the coolest tunes I..ve heard on myspace. So often, I get requests from bands, and when I go listen, it sucks and then I have to come up with something nice to say about that persons music.! This tune rocks! Right up my alley too. I wish I could finger pick like that. As a drummer first, I always appreciate someone who grooves hard like you do. I hear some Leon (Russell)in your voice, but you..ve got a sound all your own. I had the pleasure of opening for Mr. Russell years ago at an outdoor festival. It was about 105 degrees (F) and he had a wet towel over his head. The guy looked like Jesus Christ! The crowd went nuts and he blew us all away. Keep up the great writing, Lars. Right about when I thought the thing was over, in come the bass and drums, and it rocks even harder.....Really good. Are you pitching this stuff to anyone over here?"
Keyboards Magazine (the german):…....the Dane still loves his minimoog, and his pitch bend technique is delicate. His compositions often develop into funk and fusion, and one might think this would be difficult to blend with his ambient (Brian) Eno landscapes. But not to LPA. As a true master he melts different styles into one, thus opening a new fresh perspective for the electronicmusic"
