Laura Sawosko

Laura Sawosko began her solo career in 1999 and has released 3 albums under her independent label, LOLO Records. She just released her 2nd full length album, Piecing It Together, which will be sold online through distributors this June.
Although she does not like to compare herself to other artists, her influences include: Tori Amos, Ani Difranco, Sheryl Crow and Dar Williams.

What sets her apart from other musicians? It's very simple. She is the complete package. Not a voice led by a pack of suits on American Idol, nor a top 40 Diva wanna be. Her songs not only reflect her own journey, but force you to see your own through ruthless honesty and childlike images. Her vocal technique is original and passionate which parallels her guitar, while the piano introduces another layer of technical and melodic grace. She creates an intimate setting at her powerful live performances and uses that precious time to relate to her audience.

"My music in general is evolving every time I perform or compose a song and am excited to share my discoveries with the world".

From performing at the 1999 Phoenix Lilith Fair with Sarah McLachlin and Sheryl Crow, to composing the original musical score for the acclaimed independent film, An Intimate Friendship, she puts her entire self into the music she creates. It doesn't matter if she's performing in front of 10,000 people or a captive audience of ten at a local coffee shop.

You may have also seen Laura on NBC's #1 rated show, Fear Factor. In a brave attempt to promote her music and possibly win $50,000 to assist her career, she had the rare opportunity to ride a bull and eat cow brains. Unfortunately, she was unable to finish the required amount of brains in the designated time.

Laura just completed her first West Coast tour and will be promoting her album Piecing It Together this Fall.

"If I can touch one person's life, then I have succeeded".
