Lauren Housley is a singer and songwriter hailing from Yorkshire. Her love of music started early, with a deep connection to great songs, the craft of storytelling and emotive vocal performance. “It was like magic to me, that music could have such an impact on the way I felt. It became my therapy.”
“Being a deeply empathetic person led me to channel my emotions into poems and songs, with a hope that they would bring some comfort, joy and understanding to people.” Lauren independently released her debut album Sweet Surrender in 2015, quickly garnering acclaim from fans and fellow musicians. The album’s first single, Ghost Town Blues hit the BBC Radio 2 playlist, whilst album track, The Waiting Game, became Robert Elms’ favourite track of the year on his BBC Radio London Show. The album picked up steam from there when several album tracks received regular play across various BBC Radio stations, which led to Lauren being contacted by Live Nation.
