Lauren Thomson on Tour
16.04.2008
Leaving a trail of sighing punters behind her from Whangarei to Wanaka, Lauren Thomson has forged a well-respected path for her songs that's only equaled by her passion to pour out her heart night after night on stages large and small. Echoing the noir-country tradition of life's well drawn struggles (think Johnny Cash meets Ryan Adams… on a good day), Thomson sends her bruised and weathered voice soaring over a jangling flat-top as she poignantly illustrates borrowed tales of heartache and revenge with her own wit – never afraid to let hope creep up behind.
Now Lauren, whose album Our Love is Due has been a popular Amplifier seller, is taking to the road to give you a chance to catch her live.
