Laura Marie is an example of the latest in singer-songwriters from the Lone Star State of Texas to make a difference in the music world of her home state and the world. While she has been compared to Norah Jones, Chrissy Hynde, and Carole King in the genre of Americana, Pop, and Rock Music; her style is unique.

She was born and raised in San Antonio, Texas and started music at an early age by performing with bands such as the group Things Between and Sofa Kingdom. Laura Marie also worked in different areas related to music such as a backup vocal singer and voice overs.

Laura Marie studied music education at St. Mary’s University and graduated with a degree in that career with high honours. She continued her work in the music field as choir director for a local grade school until she made the decision to initiate a career as a singer.

Laura Marie proceeded to give concerts in distinct establishments of San Antonio, Texas such as Bohemeos, Dirty Dog, Casa Chiapas, Tin Roof, Candlelight Coffeehouse, Guadalupe Street Coffee, Rockhills Cafe, and Little Aussie Cafe and Bakery. She was an immediate success in the San Antonio area.

The first album from Laura Marie was released in the year 2007. The title is “Drawn” and was co-produced by Mack Damon. Mack Damon is a five time winner of the Grammy Award whose magic touch produces great hits in artists that deserve to be heard.

The album was well received and played in different venues such as radio stations including Radio Free Texas and Phoenix Radio. In the year 2010, Laura Marie released her second CD titled “Last Of The Ones” which consolidated her hold in the Texas Americana Scene.

The songs in this album are gems in their own right at a time when most artists record an album with one song is being a great one and the others just simply existing to fill the remaining space in a recording.

The first song: “What’s It Like” is an upbeat song which is Pop Rock and Americana in its consistency. It examines what is like to be another person from the position of weakness. The end result of the song is the conclusion that a person has to be them self.

The second song:”The Moon And The Sun” in the opinion of the underwriter is a song that deals with life and the about the relationship between the Moon, the Sun, and the personality of the person. The song “Love You Like Me” is another upbeat song which makes people think.

The song “Love You Like Me” is a song that is based on the common sense notion of the need to slow down, get a grip, and enjoy the moment. In other words, the people should learn how to live one day at a time without the need to concentrate on the past and the future.

The past is past, the future is yet to come, and the present which is the greatest gift from God is the present. The present should be cherished as stated in the verses of this great song. The Last Of The Ones is the title track in this album of the 21st Century.

It deals with the need to find oneself and spend time with one self or with others. The song challenges people to find their inner self and to make peace with whom and what they are. It is a great lesson for those who have looked in vain for alternative roads to salvation without any results.

The song “Quiet Now” is another example of the songs by Laura Marie which deals with the inner self.  The last song the underwriter heard was “Find A Way” which challenges people to do the opposite of their bad intentions.

When the underwriter hears the verses of “Find A Way”, he attempts to be quiet when he wants to talk. It is also a lesson for those who want to say unkind words and challenges people to say kind words instead of words that hurt.

Laura Marie is one of the greatest in Texas and Americana Music who deserves to be heard since she is down to earth  She also believes that people need to have love instead of hate in her heart and soul. The world is better because of her music and personality.
