Lourenco Alexinho Fernandes (17 July 1943 – 26 April 2016), popularly known as Lawrence de Tiracol or Larry, was an Indian singer, lyricist, theatre director, playwright, and engineer who worked on the Konkani stage.

After completing his engineering studies, Fernandes embarked on a successful career with Otis Worldwide, a multinational corporation specializing in the manufacturing of elevators and escalators.

His professional responsibilities eventually led him to the Middle East, where he was entrusted with overseeing Otis's business interests in various countries, including Iran, Saudi Arabia, Dubai, and others.

For a period of 18 years, Fernandes dedicated himself to his work in the Middle East, gradually distancing himself from the Konkani stage and focusing on his corporate endeavors.

Throughout his career, Fernandes had the privilege of sharing the stage with tiatr personalities such as Kid Boxer, C. Alvares, Francis de Parra, Rico Rod, Star of Arossim, Seby Coutinho, Souza Ferrao, Remmie Colaco, and Anthony Mendes, among others.

Additionally, Fernandes showcased his talent as a scriptwriter, having written scripts for three tiatrs titled Sonstin Sanddlolo, Dukhacho Daag (The scar of pain), and Konnak Mhunnom Maim (Whom do I call Mother?).
