Critics and fans alike rave about the "crystalline beauty" of Laura Harley's voice. In a time when the airwaves are jammed with the static of a world on the brink, Laura cuts through the noise. Her captivating voice, evocative lyrics, and unforgettable songs have brought her devoted fans and critical acclaim throughout her musical career. At a high-school battle of the bands, Laura ' s singing caught the attention of guitarist Teddy Kim, who was looking for a collaborator. The two cut a demo under the name Sliver and burst onto the Minneapolis club scene. Sliver became a buzz act when the local college radio station obtained a copy of their demo and put it into heavy rotation. That year, before releasing a record, Sliver was voted Minneapolis' best new band in a ballot sponsored by the prestigious First Avenue Club. They went on to release two critically-acclaimed CDs, tour nationally, and chart on the college music charts. Later she and Teddy began a new musical collaboration seeking new perspective. Her 2006 self titled CD had critics outdoing themselves with praise. "Sounding like a snowcapped Sade, Harley (a trained life coach) strives for meaningful messages and inner explorations amid rich, subtle arrangements. Even empowerment anthems " Champion " and " Sing Out Loud " never lose their cool, but that ' s in tune with Harley ' s vision to make soothing, contemplative pop." --Minnesota Monthly
