Laurie Jones

Bio:

With the release of her new self-titled album, Laurie Jones cements her status as a full-service singer-songwriter. Jones's third album is refreshingly genuine and musically to the point. Front and center is her remarkable voice and efficient songwriting ability. "This new record comes from the music I really love", explains Jones. "I allowed my gospel and country influences to face off with my rock demons". In doing so Jones has created a work of "transgenre rock 'n' roll". As stated in a recent review, "Jones delivers what is arguably the best effort of her still-budding career". Whether backed by her touring band or going solo, Laurie Jones crafts songs with strong melody and lyrics that are frank and relevant. The new single "Overrated" is a commentary of the waning condition of the music industry, as Jones finds herself straddling the grandeur of pop celebrity and the gutter of staying alive. Regardless, Laurie Jones soars way above the musical fray with style and power to spare. booking: laurietunes@gmail.com 207-460-6928 publicity europe: Hemifrån contact: peter holmstead +46 33 26 02 10 peter.holmstedt@telia.com .. ....
