Artist description Lori B sings and plays guitar and toy piano. Her music is spare and poetic, whispery and intense, like simple golden threads. She is a visionary of the heart with a bittersweet sting. When you listen to her music it's as if you can see clear through to her soul.

Music Style Eccentric, contemporary, bred-in-the-bone folk. Her music is unapologetically emotional and radically intimate.

Artist History Born on the tail winds of Hurricane Hazel, Lori began writing songs on the piano at the age of 14. She kept her music a secret through young adulthood, and after college Lori fell musically silent for 15 years. During this time she drove a tractor-trailer across America, worked in the movie business, and practiced as a psychotherapist (specializing in work with women with body image issues and eating disorders). At age 36, Lori B began dancing again (abandoned, along with the music in her early twenties). In 1992, Lori began writing and singing again, and the following year she moved to the Bay Area. In the spring of 1996 she released Lucky Seven, a six-song audio cassette. In December of that same year, she debuted as a solo performing singer-songwriter. In 1998 she released Hurricane Child, her first full length CD.

Press Reviews The only thing wild in these eleven songs is the power of simplicity, quiet, even silence...it's as if Lori B were in the room with you, whispering them in your ear, confiding, entreating, confessing, in a quiveringly eloquent voice that has its silly, quirky moments: a sudden chirp, a deconstructed vowel, a note so low it's barely there. —Kate Conner-Ruben, Ann Arbor Observer
