Sounds Like
Female pop/rock with a little edge for good measure! Album track selections will be a mix of full-band pop/rock music and laid back acoustic tracks, blending together to create a unique experience for the Christian/Secular music world(s).
Native to the Northwest, Laura began singing as a child, growing up in a large family where both creating and performing music were a normal part of life. After several years singing in her home church, she decided to try her hand at writing her own music at the age of fourteen. She continued to write original music as she attended college in Portland, OR on a music scholarship.
Now Laura is a wife and mother of three beautiful children. Inspired by personal experience and the lives of those close to her, she writes in a way that draws you in to her journey of life, love, and pain – and brings a sense of discovery, hope, and understanding. Her lyrics and melodies are both raw and real, challenging and intriguing, and will always leave you wanting to hear more!
In 2007 she completed the tracks for her EP at Downbeat Sounds in Vancouver, WA. Select tracks have been aired on local radio throughout the Northwest, and can be heard streaming on iTunes or at www.spirit1053.com.
Since the release of the EP, Laura has been nominated to the official 2008 Grammy ballot in six categories including best new artist and best female pop-vocal, awarded with the Vocalist of the Month from Singer Universe (www.singeruniverse.com), won the Christian/Gospel category for the Song of the Year competition (www.songoftheyear.com), and was selected to be one of 12 bands in the 104.1 FM The Fish “Home for the Holidays” Christmas Show 2007 live on air in Portland, OR. She was also featured in January as one of the artists on Spirit 105.3 FM Seattle for their Local Music Project.
Laura can be seen in a number of venues from full-band large concerts to acoustic shows in coffee shops and clubs.
Laura's music has also been selected for use on multiple film soundtracks in 2009.
