Sounds LikeWell, the people who listen to pop think I sound country, the people who like country say I sound folky, the people who listen to folk think I sound rocky - so I guess there's elements of all 3! Apparently you can hear my Scottish accent when I sing and I'd like to think that my music sounds original. However, my favourite quote from a recent CD review said - "reminiscent of Carol King/Dolly Parton, but without the perky nipples on the album cover". Fair enough! Please feel free to check out the tunes and draw your own conclusions:-)
Record LabelMy own label, Vola Records

   About Laura Kenny
Hey! I'm a Glasgow based singer/songwriter currently trying to carve out a niche for myself in the music industry. I'm influenced by all kinds bands and singers that are around at the moment as well as many of the modern contemporary country and folky artists too! For a bit of background, I been singing professionally for 5/6 years now, starting off in my teens singing covers in bars with my acoustic guitar. After leaving school, I decided to write and perform my own songs and in the last couple of years have made this my main focus. After finishing a degree in business studies in 2004, I took up the full time role of "Broke Musician" and quickly realised how difficult it was to attract the interest of major record labels. As a result, I decided to record my first album "Drive", independently at the end of last year and put it out on my own label (Vola Records) to be sold online through my website www.laurakenny.com. This has enabled me to make half a living and this month the label was awarded the BT/PSYBT young E-ntrepreneurs "Best e-Business 2006". Now that I have been introduced to all this technology stuff (and consequently been dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century!) I thought I'd give myspace a go! Please feel free to listen to the tracks and drop me a line anytime!

Hi ,

someone did cracked our account and wanted to sell
ringtones by sending comments or bulletins in our name.

WE WOULD NEVER DO THAT!

Hey - a wee update to our friends as it's been a couple of months. We now have a true fan page on Myspace too - click the logo below - where it's only folks that really like the music that get signed up. Amongst other cool things over there is a 6 minute version of our last gig, and a sneaky glimpse at the title track from our forthcoming album "Unfinished Business" - stop by and ask to be added and ...... Enjoy!
(Oh - and thanks for being our friend !).

Hello - I'm about to begin a new feature on my radio show which will hopefully raise the profile of acts to an audience that may not likely ever get to hear them - even if you are on a label or are unsigned... and it does not matter where in the world you are!

It's going to be called the 'Shandy Showcase' - there is no definite time plan for launch but it will be soon and I would let you know when you're appearing in it. (Every CD will be considered for airplay)

Below is the address to send CDs, goodies, promotional items and information about yourself including website addresses - and anything else you want to send me...

THE SHANDY SHOWCASE

PLEASE MARK THE ENVELOPE 'PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL'.

I look forward to hearing from you.

PLEASE CHECK OUT www.mfr.co.uk/shandyshowcase IF YOU REQUIRE CONFIRMATION.

P.S. Feel free to forward this bulletin on.... hit reply, copy'n'paste the ENTIRE message into a new bulletin, including my MySpace name/link so musicians can get in-touch with me if needed.

Hi Laura Kenny :)
Hope you had a great New Year and all the best for 2007 :) We've been working hard and have big plans for 2007 - but we could really use YOUR help (which is why we're contacting everyone :)). We're hitting the rehearsals soon and will be recording in March. After that we want to go on tour with our mini-album between Fri 21st April and Sun 6th May.

Unlike some bands - we really want to tour for our friends. We'd love to hear from you if you think you can help us come to your town. You may know a venue or a promoter. You may be able to help us advertise the gig or perhaps you can help us find a place to stay for the night. Or if you want to help design the album or posters - anything. Even if all you can do is lend some moral support we'd love to here from you. Email root@outofthegray.com and hopefully we'll be playing near you soon. Thanks for your time :)
Out Of The Gray

PS: If you can't wait 'til April - we're playing ONE gig at the Dry Bar, Manchester - supporting Hafdis Huld on Friday 9th February :)
