Lake Mary, the musical moniker of Chaz Prymek, is a multi-instrumentalist and a folk-drone artist known for creating evocative, tranquil soundscapes that blend acoustic guitar with ambient textures. Often regarded as a central figure in the American Primitive guitar scene, Lake Mary's compositions cradle the spirit of reflective contemplation and organic exploration, channeling rustic simplicity through a modern lens.

The artist's works, like "Microfolk" and "The Sun Still Rises," are characterized by a deep, resonant acoustic sound, intertwined with delicate fingerpicking and ambient expanses that transport listeners to introspective realms. With albums like "Koda" and its reissued version, "River Ceremony," and "And the Birds Sing in Chorus First," Lake Mary has secured a place in the hearts of ambient acoustic aficionados. The carefully composed melodies and motifs in pieces such as "Slow Grass" and "Once It's All On The Ground" further cement Lake Mary's reputation as a purveyor of the subtle interplay between nature and sound, encapsulating a timeless, pastoral serenity in their music.
