Description
Sound description: The bluesy pop of guitarist and singer songwriter Laura Dare contains elements of rock, folk, country and jazz. Dare’s powerful vocals and smart lyrics combine with strong songwriting to create music that is eminently listenable, with sufficient richness to guarantee a long shelf life. Her CD "Wherever You Go" is backed by serious talent, with tracks featuring guitarist Tom Ayres and Monterey sax legend Roger Eddy. It passes the sing-along test, the goose bump test, and most importantly, the slow driving test. (That’s the one where you drive slowly because you’d rather listen to the songs than arrive at your destination.)
Influences: Bonnie Raitt, Ani DeFranco, Tracy Chapman
