His bio:
{At 18, Larzz isn’t afraid to shake things up. He’s a singer/songwriter/guitarist and founder of the Pop/Rock solo project Show Me the Skyline that first appeared on the scene in the spring of 2009. Larzz toured throughout the east coast and performed in numerous music festivals including shows for the 2010 Warped Tour. He quickly developed a dedicated fan base and his music is instantly recognized by thousands of fans. Larzz is now taking his career to the next level and will be setting aside the SMTS name to be a self-titled artist.
Larzz’s new EP entitled “Shut Up And Dance” distinctly reflects his growth as a musician and songwriter. He states, “The songs in my new EP aim to be a potent mix of musical styles that combine Pop/Dance influences with Alternative roots and bit of video game-esque synths. To capture the feel of what I was looking for I collaborated with successful songwriter and producer Blake Healy, formerly of the band Metro Station”. And the overall sound is? Boy’s Like Girls meets Metro Station with a dash of Ke$ha chucked into the mix.
Larzz spends a lot of time getting to know his fans, both online and in the real world. “I play music so I can connect with people and all of the social media sites out there make it super easy. Then, when I play live I get to meet the awesome fans that I’ve been talking to online. My fans really inspire me and my goal is to make music that is meaningful to them-that’s our connection.”

Show Me the Skyline Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hear you got a way with words.
And right now your body sure is talkin' but
Not in the form of nouns, or verbs.
I know you're not a fan of holdin' hands,
But stay with me girl cause ive got a plan
It's gonna be something you don't wanna miss
Tell me all your hopes girl
And all your wishes too
I will do my best girl
To make them all come true.
Just name the time, girl
& while your at it pick the place
Cause ill do what i can girl
To paint a smile on that face
Never know what?ll happen next
But you flash that smile, and my whole day?s set.
Oh no, you've got me wrapped around your finger.
Wrapped around your finger
But this summer, girl I've got good news
Got two left feet but I'm not afraid to move
Kick off your shoes and come dance with me
Oh kick off your shoes, and come dance with me.
Kick off your shoes and come dance with me
Oh kick off your shoes, and come dance with me.
Tell me all your hopes girl
And all your wishes too
I will do my best girl
To make them all come true.
Just name the time, girl
& while your at it pick the place
Cause ill do what i can girl
To paint a smile on that face
I'm looking through these pictures
And the notes you left for me
I feel as if you'll always be
The only one i need.
So grab a girl and spin and shout
And move till you can't stand
Or if you've got a lover
Boy just take her by the hand (x2)
Tell me all your hopes girl
And all your wishes too
I will do my best girl
To make them all come true.
Just name the time, girl
& while your at it pick the place
Cause ill do what i can girl
To paint a smile on that face
