Laura Hull Quartet August 2, 2009

Just a few years ago, Laura was working on Wall Street - now she is investing her time by creating and performing music full-time. A native of New York City, Laura has always been a performer, including a stint working in upstate New York's fabled Catskill Mountains and working as a jingle singer. After a 24-year hiatus from music to pursue a business career, she returned to live performance in 2004, and has emerged as a melodic jazz singer who has a real feel for the Great American Songbook. With influences ranging from Rosemary Clooney and Carmen McRae to Patsy Cline and k.d. Lang, Laura delivers a combination of rich, sultry, and expressive vocals with music drawn from an extensive repertoire of American popular songs, jazz standards, and her original songs.
