Introduced to the world of folk music at a young age, Laura recounts fond childhood memories of being the little tot in footie pajamas up past her bedtime to hear some good old folk music in the Unitarian church basements and local coffee shops. During her college years, Laura spent time perfecting her songwriting and performing around the Boston area. . In 2004, Laura decided to pursue her music in earnest with the release of her EP, in the everyday. In 2006, she appeared on Club Passim's Open Mike Compilation CD and released her debut full length CD, Points North. Laura is rapidly developing a loyal fan base throughout the Northeast and across the country.
Laura recognizes that the real stuff of life doesn't necessarily happen in the high peaks or the low valleys, but in that area in between, in the mundane and day-to-day. Her songwriting reflects a longing for redemption and a striving for significance in the very normal moments of daily life. With this in mind, she released her demo, entitled in the everyday. Whether a song is dealing with joys or sorrows, Laura weaves a subtle strand of hope throughout her lyrics. She strives to capture the intricacies of human experience in her songs, like moments captured with a Polaroid.
On stage, Laura connects with her audience like two friends over a cup of tea. Her songs combine her sweet and simple voice, beautiful guitar work, and lyrics filled with depth and history. Laura continues to share her music within the folk community, performing throughout the Northeast and beyond. |

– Traditional Irish Fiddler
Traditional Irish fiddle player Laurel Martin performs in a subtle, lyrical style reminiscent of the regional music of County Clare and East Galway, areas in western Ireland rich with musical history. Laurel’s deep affinity and love for the old regional fiddle styles of Ireland distinguish her both as a performer and as a teacher of traditional Irish music. She has engaged audiences throughout the United States and Ireland with lively jigs, reels, waltzes, and airs. Laurel learned her music from master fiddler Seamus Connolly with whom she studied from 1990 to 1993 under a Traditional Arts Apprenticeship grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. Laurel teaches Irish fiddle at Boston College and has taught and performed at numerous festivals in the United States and in Ireland. |

– Original and traditional Brazilian songs
When was the last time you heard the soothing, lilting sounds of Brazilian music? Deborah Rocha would like to reacquaint you with this most interesting genre of world music. As a musician, it is Deborah's main goal to bring Brazilian music to a larger audience, to show through the music what we all have in common. As a songwriter, she creates poetically faithful translations of Brazilian lyrics into English, and she composes original songs which are heavily influenced by the rhythms, melodies, and harmonies of Brazilian music. Deborah has brought her infectious enthusiasm for Brazilian music to Scullers Jazz Club, Ryles Jazz Club, the Marblehead Arts Festival, Arlington's “Tunes on the Green,” Boston's First Night 2005, and the Women in Latin Jazz festival in JP. |
