Laura was born in San Francisco and began playing piano at age 4. Her mother wrote children's books. Laura completed her graduate studies in New York and issued her first album, "Piano Solos", in 2003. You've probably heard her music without realizing it in numerous films, TV shows and commercials. It was her 2013 release "Love's River" (produced by Windham Hill's Will Ackerman) that netted her a Grammy.
Ultimately, it doesn't matter what connects you to the music so long as something does. If you find "A Magical Christmas" to be healing or peaceful and meditative, then good for you. For myself, I can't help but think of this as the sound Amanda might have grown into. Either way, you can preview the entire album at Bandcamp and pre-oder the October 2 release in CD or vinyl formats via Amazon.
