notes
Shaped by life’s inconsistencies and emboldened by the brighter prospects that tomorrow seems to offer singer/song writer Lauren Adams touches both our soul and our hearts with her music. At the root is Americana, a fusion of rock, country and blues sung passionately by an artist who’s been there, done that and is ready for new challenges.
Lauren has been a vital part of the L.A. music scene, currently produces and hosts the monthly show, The Americana Music Circle, held at Kulak’s Woodshed in Los Angeles, CA and chose to release her latest album, “Secret Heart” in her hometown before it will be distributed worldwide. She chose to hold a special party in honor of the loyal fans who pre-ordered “Secret Heart” to help finance production and manufacturing costs for the CD. Adams has found the generosity and unwavering support of her fans staggering, and wants to express her heartfelt gratitude at this celebration. “Secret Heart” is already garnering much attention from the music industry.
With the stellar musicianship on the CD, it's no secret as to why. Produced by guitar veteran Nick Newell Kirgo (David Lynch, Julee Cruise, Nels Cline, A.J. Croce, Vonda Shepard), the album is a virtual who’s who of the L.A. music scene. Kirgo and Adams provide extraordinary guitar work along with the likes of David Sutton (Lucinda Williams, Tracy Chapman) laying down bass, Gary Mallaber (Steve Miller Band, Eddie Money, Van Morrison, Bruce Springsteen)and Lynn "skins" Coulter manning the drums, John “JT” Thomas (Bruce Hornsby) rounding things out on keyboards, and Jesse Valenzuela (Gin Blossoms) on harmonica.
“You'll find her exploring the well-worn American inland where folk, blues and gospel predominate . . . a husky voice admits to disappointment, but tough guitar strokes and bright piano convey the strength to survive.” -Sean Piccoli, Ft. Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel
Lauren Adams just received two honorable mentions at this year’s International Songwriting Competition for both “Thirsty” and “Secret Heart”. “Thirsty” was also recently featured in the Lion's Gate movie, Peaceful Warrior, starring Nick Nolte. The "Secret Heart" track was written exclusively for an improvised film in the works, The Canvas.
Adams is actively involved in raising money for local charitable organizations including, Children of the Night (rescues runaway teens in Hollywood) and Hep C Aware (Hepatitis C awareness group), and benefits for fellow musicians in need of health care just to name a few.CONTACT INFORMATION For more reviews, tour dates and music clips, log onto www.LaurenAdams.com www.myspace.com/LaurenAdams101
