Lauren Housley is a young woman who packs the one-two punch of a powerhouse vocal and a story to tell. She returns with the long-awaited release of her third album, Girl From The North on 23rd April 2021. Wrapped in a fresh and eclectic sound, the central theme of the new record is one of rediscovering herself and her roots. “To move forward we sometimes have to go back. I wanted to prove to myself that it doesn’t matter where you are in the world, you can make great music.”
Lauren’s style remains grounded in the roots world, with a hint of one of her childhood influences – “good Pop songwriting”. Girl From The North showcases 10 songs written by Lauren and her husband and long-time musical collaborator Thomas Dibb, spanning a variety of styles from the ethereal Americana of “Stay Awake To Dream” and “Sing To Me” which Lauren describes as an ‘adult lullaby’, right through to the psychedelic-folk production of “Breakdown” and “Guaranteed Sunshine”, a summery anthem reminiscent of early Sheryl Crow.
