LOS ANGELES (Top40 Charts/
Lauren Adams Official Website) - L.A.'s own,
Lauren Adams, continues her new album tour across the U.S. deep into the "Secret Heart" of Texas. A vital part of the regional music scene, Adams independently released her latest CD, "Secret Heart" to Triple A,
Roots and Americana radio formats, and is currently on tour. Following up her special appearance at The Mint,
Lauren is set to perform select CA gigs before she heads south. Fittingly, Lauren's family roots run through
Texas and her affection for the Lone Star state peeks through on the "Same Moon" track from her new CD.
Adams' fusion of rock, folk, country and blues has been gaining critical acclaim across the country: KNBA (AK), KCSN (CA), WIKX (FL), KFAN (TX), KCAW (AK), KSYM (TX), Public Radio East (NC), and Radio Crystal Blue (internet show). Laurie Joulie of Take Country Back magazine writes, "Superb, intelligent, thought provoking songs. Real songs for real people... 'Secret Heart' not only begs to be heard, it deserves it!" The title track for "Secret Heart" also received Honorable Mention at the 2007 International Songwriting Competition.
As host/producer of the long running Americana Music Circle (at Kulak's Woodshed), Lauren has shared the stage with some of the greatest talent from every corner of the globe. In addition to this, Adams is passionately involved in raising money for local charitable organizations. She just played Grassroots Acoustica 10: Friends of the L.A. River benefit at Lulu's Beehive in Sherman Oaks, CA, and also at Hallenbeck's General Store, North Hollywood, CA, to benefit Hep C Aware (Hepatitis C awareness group).
Lauren kicked off her tour in Anchorage, AK, and has been playing special shows throughout the Pacific Northwest. After her run through Texas, Adams will hit various venues across the U.S., including her native FL stomping grounds. Despite the challenges that indie artists have to endure while touring, Lauren loves to perform and gives her all to audiences. Her "Secret Heart" tour is one secret you'll want to be in on.
