First and foremost, singer-songwriter Laura Warshauer is a storyteller, examining loss, love and life through her music. The New Jersey native crafts sonic gems, combining pop melodies and flourishes of rock, while her lyrical sensibility hearkens back to songsmiths like Joni Mitchell and Janis Ian.
Laura is currently touring to support her self-titled EP, released on Island Records and produced by Rich Keller. The disc features orchestral textures that perfectly compliment her warm, earthy vocals. Laura describes her sound best, "There's definitely a rock sensibility, but it's really about grand melodies. I have a classic pop structure in terms of my writing style, but lyrically, I offer a unique angle."
The songs spoke loud and clear, and Laura's immense talent caught the ear of Island Def Jam chairman Antonio "LA" Reid. He showed up to a Sunday night rehearsal and offered a record deal on the spot. He said, "If you want it, you have a home with Island Records."
This fall, Laura performed with the Gin Blossoms and the Nappy Roots. She was a featured performer at the SXSW BMI brunch, the Lollapalooza Music Lounge, CMJ and was invited to perform at Lollapalooza 2010.
In addition, Laura has been a volunteer with Musicians On Call since she was 16. MOC began in the pediatric cancer ward at Memorial Sloan-Kettering, where artists play bedside for patients. About these special performances, Laura comments, "You have three minutes to make a difference. You're either going to get through to someone or you're not, so make it mean something. You want to take that person somewhere else."
Laura wants to give audiences something they can truly connect to.
"People respond when you're honest in your art. I love it when people get a sense of something real, organic and human from my music. It's about taking people on the ride with you..."
