You might recognize Lauren from Season 19 of NBC's "The Voice," where she made it to the Knockout Rounds on Teams Gwen and Legend, or lately from her feature in NPR Music's Tiny Desk 'Top Shelf'!

Lauren's vocals have been compared to Amber Navran of Moonchild, Joni Mitchell, and Amy Winehouse. Her music is indie singer-songwriter, with folk and neo-soul elements. The urban vibe of her music is a surprising juxtaposition to the rural eastern Colorado farm where she lives and creates.  

Lauren is currently working on a debut solo project she can't wait to share with the world!
