"It doesn't take long to realize that she is not simply a doe-eyed teenager, but a seriously self-assured songwriter whose drawn, and deserves comparisons to Lana Del Rey, Lorde, and Florence and the Machine." -Vogue

"One is instantly hypnotized by her enchanting energy and passion for life-making her 'sweetheart' title a founded one." - V Magazine

"But that's part of Laurel's charm, the poise that's taken her from plunking out simple melodies on the family piano to self-producing lush electro-pop that tops Internet charts and lands on episodes of 'The Vampire Diaries.'"
- T Magazine

"Laurel's heady mix of folk-inflected vocals, slow-burning piano, and soaring strings places her somewhere between Laura Marling and Lana del Rey, but it's her brooding and distinctly English lyricism that sets her apart." - BULLETT

"Laurel is about to shine in the light of young female talent breaking in the indie pop world." - Earmilk

London singer/songwriter/producer Laurel has announced the release of her second EP entitled Holy Water on December 15th, 2014 via her own imprint, Next Time Records. The EP features her new single "Memorials," which was premiered by Huw Stephens of BBC Radio 1 earlier this month, and was also played by Zane Lowe - PRESS HERE<https://soundcloud.com/classiclaurel/memorials-1> to listen to the song. Today, Wonderland has also premiered another song from the EP, "Come Together (featuring Sivu)"- PRESS HERE<http://www.wonderlandmagazine.com/2014/12/premiere-laurel-ft-sivu-come-together/> to listen.

Holy Water is another beautiful and haunting body of work for Laurel. She has created dreamy songs layered with subtle electronic beats and orchestral arrangements, all the while highlighting her sultry vocals. The new EP also features Atlantic Records singer-songwriter Sivu. Laurel and Sivu unite on the track "Come Together" creating a heartfelt pop song.

Hailing from a tiny town somewhere between Southampton and Portsmouth in the UK, Laurel has been writing, producing and performing her own original material since age 14. Following the completion of her college exams, Laurel moved to London and inked a deal with Turn First Records (Iggy Azalea, Ellie Goulding, Dan Croll) off the strength of a song demo. Laurel caused quite a stir after posting her arresting track "Blue Blood," which sent blogs into a frenzy, and her follow up "Fire Breather" was featured on the wildly popular CW show The Vampire Diaries. She has been featured on Vogue.com, Vice's Noisey.com, W Magazine, The Lab, BULLETT, Pigeons & Planes, Myspace and more. She is also represented by NEXT models.
