Massachusetts native Lauren Harding headed west to pursue
her musical passion by recording her debut EP in a Los Angeles recording
studio. Over the course of a long weekend, Harding produced six songs that
would make up her album, “Heart In A Box.”
Her vocals become the main focus on the slow jazz of “Shooting
Stars” and “My Heart Flies.” The passion in Lauren’s vocals are felt in the EP’s
opening song “Give It Away” as the beat of drum gives the song an extra appeal.
It’s great how Lauren disguises the dark subject of the “Poison” with her sweet
sounding voice. The album closes with one of the few upbeat moments in the
jazz/folk song, “Sunset.”
Lauren Harding has a couple of shows lined up in Los
Angeles. Please visit laurenhardingmusic.com for more information on this
rising singer/songwriter.
Connecticut native Josh Mintz’s latest band, Friend Slash
Lover recently released their new EP entitled “The Grey Area.” The album’s
leads off with “As Seen On TV” which has a modern pop rock sound with an
infectious chorus. The first single off the EP is the title song, “The Grey
Area,” which has a soft beginning that builds with great songwriting. The
prayer-like “Dear God” and the piano driven “Carry Your Weight” lay focus on
Josh's vocals as he delivers the lyrics with such a passion for performing.
