Liam Lawson performed in Austin on Thursday night for the first time in front of a crowd since he was 11, joining his brother Marcus and childhood friends Thomas and Harrison for a show ahead of the United States Grand Prix.

Before the show, the Racing Bulls driver shared a throwback clip of the group playing together. Lawson said his father introduced him and Marcus to guitar when they were young; the group grew up playing music together in New Zealand.

Lawson played mostly country covers on a Taylor guitar made for him. Formula 1 stars Daniel Ricciardo, Isack Hadjar and Arvid Lindblad were among the crowd.
