Laura Smith with Don Brownrigg
Laura Smith
Laura Smith’s music is direct and honest. Her guitar playing gently lifts and carries her spirited vocals, while her melodies and careful poetry dig deep. “My work is all very simple, earth-based,” says the Maritime-based singer/songwriter. ”I make it body and soul, with everything I have available.” Laura has experienced exhilarating career highs. Her album b’tween the earth and my soul elicited unbounded critical acclaim, enormous airplay, national television appearances and a hungry demand for live performances. From the stages of Denmark to Newport, Rhode Island to Vancouver and the Yukon, Smith has shared the secrets of her soul, laying out for rapt audiences her private, yet ultimately universal experiences. Laura also debuted the role of Marilla in the premiere production of the musical Anne & Gilbert, here at the Victoria Playhouse.
Don Brownrigg
“As an artist Don Brownrigg is an expert on stage; his deep, soulful tone is filled with wisdom and his storytelling as a singer songwriter has garnered him a fan base all over Canada. He has already toured Europe, the United States and Canada with incredible musicians such as Shawn Colvin, The Great Lake Swimmers and Serena Ryder.”
