- Blanche — from Detroit (banjo, autoharp, mandolin, bass, vocals), since the summer of 2004. Lawrence and Blanche's other members have stated that he will not leave Blanche due to The Raconteurs' overwhelming popularity. Blanche released an EP titled "What This Town Needs" on October 24, 2006 on the V2 Ada label and are planning to release a full-length album in early 2007, with much touring.
- The Raconteurs — (bass, vocals), a Grammy nominated Nashville-based band composed of Brendan Benson, Jack White, and Patrick Keeler.

The band has been touring North America and Europe since March of 2006, and are most commonly known for their hit single, Steady, As She Goes.
Lawrence and Keeler, along with Detroit musician and producer Dave Feeny, were in the Do-Whaters, the band formed and led by Jack White of The White Stripes for Loretta Lynn's 2004 album Van Lear Rose.
