The Laurie B. Ballard Band is taylor-made for your event. We have the versatility of covering just about any style, but in Laurie's own , unique, soulful and personable style. Laurie is also a prolific songwriter and has been known to conjure up a song---spur of the moment (much to the surprise and horror of the band at times...). The Band brings an upbeat and playful humor
as well as superb professionalism and topnotch musicianship. Chris Russell of "The Yosemite Coffee Roasting Company" in Oakhurst, Ca. states, "Laurie B. Ballard is not just a great musician---she is a performer."
Although Laurie's unique vocal stylings are hard to compare, some have said there is a little Ella Fitzgerld, Patsy Cline, and Michelle Shocked just all mixed together.
So, whatever your event calls for---we got it. As a solo act, a duo (which we actually call the Laurie B. Ballard Trio:), featuring the infamous Ray
Black on Stand-up bass and various colorful guitars. Or the full blown band including our great drummer Tim Jeffries and Bruno our bluesy, jazzy, and very cool rock lead guitarist. What a combination! All cool cats and all professional with a sound that will knock all your socks off!
Laurie, I'm very excited!! I let my geek alter ego loose and she built a neuro-audiovisual module that dynamically rewires the brain, is cross platform and may be used as easily by a baby as it may by an adult! Just wanna share it with you! :D :D (My company has also made a DPO; giving "commissions" to friends who successfully refer investors.) Visit my profile to learn more about all the above.
We must get together when you have some free time on this side of the Bay! ;) Daily success, prosperity, well being and Peace to you!
