Lauren Housley has been running her Tuesday Night Live streaming series from home since lockdown began. Many have described the streams run by both Lauren and Tom Dibb as the best example of how to do a live stream from home! Lauren will be bringing this special edition of TNL to Yellow Arch studios in her home town of Sheffield. Lauren will be performing with a larger band line-up, showcasing some songs from her new album in addition to old favourites. The show will be filmed with multiple cameras in HD with studio quality audio from Northern Cowboy Films, making this an unmissable experience!
Tickets: Pay what you like (£10, £15, £20)
Lauren’s love of music started early, with a deep connection to great songs, the craft of storytelling and an emotive vocal performance. “It was like magic to me, that music could have such an impact on the way I felt. It became my therapy.”
“Being a deeply empathetic person led me to channel my emotions into poems and songs, with a hope that they would bring some comfort, joy and understanding to people.”
Lauren independently released her debut album Sweet Surrender in 2015, quickly garnering acclaim from fans and fellow musicians. The album’s first single, ‘Ghost Town Blues’ hit the BBC Radio 2 playlist, whilst album track, The Waiting Game, became Robert Elms’ favourite track of the year on his BBC Radio London Show. The album picked up steam from there when several album tracks received regular play across various BBC Radio stations, which led to Lauren being contacted by Live Nation.
Lauren was invited to perform at the 02 Arena in London as part of Bluesfest, alongside some of the artists that have inspired her, including Van Morrison & Tedeschi Trucks Band.
As well as opening stages for Vintage Trouble, Jack Savoretti and Van Morrison, Lauren has performed with some of her favourite, inspiring female contemporaries including Yola and Klara Soderberg (First Aid Kit).
Lauren Housley is the ‘GIRL FROM THE NORTH’ whose new album is set for release in Autumn 2020. Dealing with love, loss and the turbulence of growing up and learning about life, Lauren brings a refreshing air of optimism and heart-warming hope with an empowering belief in oneself to overcome obstacles.
