JANUARY 24,
2011 - In the
beginning, singer-songwriter KATEY LAUREL had a very different musical
destiny in mind - to play French Horn in an orchestra. Somewhere down
that line, she picked up a guitar and began putting her thoughts and
feelings on life to music. Being the daughter of seasonal migrants,
LAUREL lived a vagabond lifestyle with her parents up until the age of
four whene the family settled in a small town in Colorado. In
such a free-spirited environment with FLEETWOOD MAC, THE EAGLES and
EMMYLOU HARRIS as background music, the musical palette of an artist
that skillfully sets thoughtfully introspective lyrics to
the most winsome alt-country melodies.Her latest release FROM
HERE (produced by NEILSON HUBBARD) is a stellar eight-song EP that
proves that one of alt-country's finest new voices and writers is here
to stay.

WWW.KATEYLAUREL.COM ABOUT THE HOST: BRIAN
LUSH holds a BA in Creative Writing from the UNIVERSITY OF
NEW MEXICO. He established ROCKWIRED on New Years of 2004 and hasn’t
looked back
since. He is currently the host of all of ROCKWIRED.COM's programming
which includes such shows as ROCKWIRED RADIO PROFILES and ROCKWIRED
FREE FORM RADIO. As
program producer for ROCKWiRED.COM, LUSH is hands-on when it
comes to
interviewing and building a lasting rapport with the artists that come
ROCKWiRED’s
way. As a youngster, BRIAN LUSH had no idea what kind of seed was being
planted
by reading magazines such as HIT PARADE, HIGH TIMES, SPIN, REQUEST
(remember
that one?) and even ROLLING STONE.
“Those were the days before the internet and being a rock journalist
looked
like the coolest job imaginable.” says LUSH “But reading these
magazines had me
imagining that one day I’d be the artist giving all of the clever
answers to
some poor guy with a tape recorder. Well, life has a way of surprising
you.
Now, I’m the poor guy with the tape recorder and asking all of the
questions.”
