Jazzy In July: Laura Reed Banking on Faith not Fear

*Laura Reed’s chain of life events gave birth to a new phase in her career as she sat at her piano one night a year ago.

What seemed like disarray, was actually the seeds that helped her to conceive the first single from her upcoming album, The Awakening.  ‘Faith Not Fear‘  offers a vibrant message about overcoming the test and trials that all of humanity faces.

Laura defines it as “a kind of marching band anthem with a beat box tempo.”  The debut song  and upcoming album was co-written and produced by the two-time Grammy-award winning songwriter/producer SHANNON SANDERS (India.Arie/John Legend/Pink).

From her native South Africa, to her current city Nashville, Laura Reed’s travels have taught her that faith is an action word.  As an artist that has been captivating audiences for many years with her “slow-cooked soul music recipe”, Laura Reed’s sound and style is reminiscent of iconic music trendsetters like Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill and the late Amy Winehouse.
