JENNIE LAWS
SATURDAY AUGUST 27TH | 7:30PM - 11:00PM
With distinctive and dynamic vocal artistry, unique and original songwriting skills and wide range of influences and inspirations, Jennie Laws has emerged as a beautiful and brilliantly talented new arrival on the cutting edge of today’s music.
Yet for all her extraordinary gifts, the Toronto-born singer, composer and multi-instrumentalist is perhaps most notable for her ability to bring it all together in one accessible and appealing package. Small wonder word of mouth has been spreading steadily since Jennie Laws first began recording and performing, both in her hometown and for a growing fan base from New York to Los Angeles and beyond. She has had the opportunity to work with such leading industry tastemakers such as THX, Jahi from State of Emergency, Mateo Laboriel, Pascal Guyon, Sebastian Rogers, Dayyon Alexander and more, as well as open up for Bruno Mars and sing background vocals for INXS and Michael Buble.
Her buzz continues to grow louder with the release of her second independent project featuring such originals as “Your Love,” “Love Easily” and “I Need You” featuring soul sensation Dwele and co-written with legendary songwriter Leon Ware. It’s a collection that effortlessly spans musical genres while at the same time laying claim to a style that is wholly and completely her own. Mixing contemporary urban grooves with folk flavored nuances and soul-tinged flourishes, Jennie Laws has fashioned an alluring soundscape that draws on a lifetime of music making and points to a promising future for this passionate and polished young artist.
