Stage performance preceded his solo singing career. In April 2019, Jer Lau and Ian Chan first participated in the stage play "如果只得一分鐘," using song to portray male lead 安凌生. Lau released his first solo single, "水刑物語," on February 29, 2020, and his debut-period work earned him the Metro Radio New Artist Award, Ultimate Song Chart Gold Award for New Artist, Top Ten Chinese Gold Songs Bronze Award for New Artist, and Chill Club New Artist of the Year Award.

"水刑物語" later formed the "物語三部曲" with "迴光物語" and "風靈物語"; 小克 wrote the lyrics for all three, while 王雙駿 arranged and produced them. "狂人日記," released in March 2021, opened the "重生三部曲"; Jer Lau hoped to use it to bring progressive rock into Cantonese music and pay tribute to Queen.

Continuity between the series was also an explicit choice by Jer Lau and his creative team. Discussing his work with 王雙駿 and 小克, Lau said: "We want to create music with continuity, so that as soon as people hear it, they think of Ah Jer's songs. This is also the direction toward releasing an album next year; I think the most important thing in an album is connection." His first physical album later included the three series "物語," "重生," and "虐心."

Film songs connected his solo music with screen work. His sixth solo single, "神奇之路," is the theme song of the film "媽媽的神奇小子"; 戴偉 composed, arranged, and produced it, 陳心遙 wrote the lyrics, and the Hong Kong Children's Choir collaborated on the recording. The song was later nominated for Best Original Film Song at the 40th Hong Kong Film Awards.

His acting career developed further in "阿媽有咗第二個." Jer Lau joined the film in August 2021, playing 盧子軒, who is about to study overseas, and sang the insert song "Johnathan Soliloquy"; the role later earned a nomination for Best New Performer at the 41st Hong Kong Film Awards. In 2023, he also made a cameo as the groom 俊 in "死屍死時四十四" and sang its theme song, "鹹魚遊戲."

His first solo concert began in 2023. Now News reported on the first day that "JER LAU “ACROSS THE UNIVERSE” IN MY SIGHT SOLO CONCERT 2023" began that evening at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, with Panther Chan as the opening-show guest.

His 2024 work used Tim Burton and macabre elements as creative threads. The year's songs drew their inspiration and direction from Tim Burton, with an aim to put macabre elements into the work. am730 records that "筆觸男孩憂鬱之死" paid tribute to Tim Burton and that the subsequent "約齊靈魂在墳墓開生日派對" used a dark fairy tale to tell of awakening and rebirth.

According to am730's report on the opening show, "The Shade of Breathing" was scheduled for two performances at AsiaWorld-Expo.
