*** Daytrotter Live Session ***







All too often in modern music it seems that image, packaging and marketing
come before the artist and the song. Ed Laurie is a singer-songwriter who puts
the music back into music.
Attempting to describe his extraordinary songs, such names as Leonard Cohen,
Jacques Brel, Syd Barrett, Scott Walker and have all been floated. But like all
great songwriters, Ed Laurie takes his influences and molds them into something
new and unique. Singing in a warm, baritone voice memorably described
by one critic as “like syrup on pancakes,” his haunting, heartfelt songs have that
rare ability to take you to another place so that time seems to stand still while you
listen. Blending classic troubadour chords, Spanish guitar and Latin-tinged
acoustic rhythms with literate, penetrating lyrics, it has been said he creates a
“magical realism for the ears.”

Born in London, globetrotting British singer/songwriter Ed Laurie began his career as an actor, and though he flourished under the lights of the stage, the confidence he gleaned from the theater would eventually lead him back to his first love, music. Laurie\'s extended family in Eastern Europe, Germany, Spain, and Brazil have helped to shape his genre-defying sound. With a wide array of influences ranging from traditional singer/songwriters like Leonard Cohen and Fred Neil to legendary African singer Césaria Évora and flamenco guitarist Paco Peña, Laurie\'s thoughtful, atmospheric, warm, and occasionally melancholy songs have drawn comparisons to everyone from Syd Barrett to Jacques Brel. His seven-song self-released EP, Meanwhile in the Park, found success online both regionally and internationally, and resulted in a record deal with the Los Angeles-based Dangerbird label. His full-length debut for the label, Small Boat Big Sea, was slated for release in 2009.
