Laura Merrimen is an old soul who wears her Americana drenched heart on her sleeve.

Laura Merrimen

Laura Merrimen is a prolific writer who delivers soulful catchy songs with provoking truthful lyrics. A country girl at heart with a weakness for the big city lights, her music spans those highway lines with her Americana roots and Rock n' Roll know how. Her first album 'Love Letters For Lonely Hunters' won 2010's Music N.S. award for Country Recording of the Year and was nominated for Female Recording of the Year.

Currently wrapping up the recording of her second album at 'The Shed' in Shad Bay N.S. with Brian Murray (The Guthries) and Tim Jim Baker (Matt Mays -'When Angels Make Contact'), expect to hear a more mature Merrimen as she steps away from her country roots and explores new a new found sense of playfulness and sass in the realm of Rock n' Roll and electric guitar.

Check out another side of Laura at CBC's Studio H, recorded in January 2011 accompanied by Andrew Sneddon - Dobro, Adam Pye - Double Bass and Tom Terell - Percussion
