Laura-Jayne writes and performs original material, influenced by artists such as Bjork, Imogen Heap, Massive Attack, Deftones and Sia. She has a truly eclectic mix of styles, with haunting melodies and experimental vocal techniques. Her innovative style of live looping, building layers of vocal harmony, guitar and glockenspiel amongst other instruments, with a sound that equates to Ethereal Dubstep has captivated audiences across the UK and Ireland.
Laura-Jayne’s original works have won her numerous song-writing competitions, such as the Bright Young Things showcase in Leeds and the Avalon Acoustic Stage Singer/Songwriter of the Year Award. In addition, her work has been reviewed in various publications…
“Laura-Jayne is an acoustic singer/songwriter whose incredibly beautiful and powerful voice is mature beyond her years. Formerly a singer in a rock band, her vocal style is now more evocative of Joni Mitchell and Alanis Morrisette whom she lists as influences.”
