The Open Stage, with Laura Baron

Award-winning Singer songwriter Laura Baron will join Michelle to talk about her music, including her new CD, Scenes from the Avenue and her upcoming shows. Laura's style combines the laid back groove of easy jazz, the dark undertones of soulful blues and the heartfelt melodies of the singer songwriter alone on a quiet stage. Her voice has been compared to Joni Mitchell and Shawn Colvin. Laura has won many awards for her songwriting, including most recently, a 2008 Mid-Atlantic Song Contest Gold Award in the Jazz/Blues Category for her song, Kindness Don't Rest Easy. She has also been nominated for a Wammie award for best Contemporary Folk Female Vocalist. For more on her music visit www.LauraBaronMusic.com
