Hailing from the heart of Dublin, Ireland, Laura Izibor is the newest member of a select club of soulful Irish artists that already boasts Van Morrison, U2, The Chieftains and Sinead O'Connor amongst its members. To get a true glimpse into Laura's eclectic mix of old-school 60s' southern soul and classic Brill Building pop, just ask her what her favorite album of all-time is: Carole King's Tapestry, which was released 16 years before she was even born! After just one listen to this precocious, piano playing 17 year old, it becomes clear why people are starting to draw stylistic comparisons to legendary seminal soul singer Candi Staton, early Aretha Franklin and contemporaries such as Lauryn Hill and Alicia Keys.
