About Laura
Anglade
French &
American singer Laura Anglade is reminiscent of many of the great
traditional vocal stylists of the 20th century, including Anita
O’Day, Shirley Horn, and Blossom Dearie, but her voice is uniquely
her own. Her story-telling abilities portray a soul beyond her years
as she digs emotionally and eloquently into the song’s lyrics.
Her debut
release, ‘I’ve Got Just About Everything’ (Justin Time Records, 2019)
saw the vocalist, along with her quintet, fearlessly plunging
headlong into a wide range of material drawn from both the Broadway
stage as well as the Great American Songbook. On her Juno-nominated sophomore
recording, ‘Venez Donc Chez Moi’ (Justin Time Records, 2022), Laura
teams up with Montreal guitarist Sam Kirmayer and New York-based
accordionist Benjamin Rosenblum on two tracks. A homage of sorts, it
is a nod to Laura’s beloved France. The record features French
classics made famous by Barbara, Charles Trenet, Edith Piaf, and
Michel Legrand.
Laura leads
an active international touring schedule and has performed at venues
including Olympia (Paris), Royal Festival Hall (London), Town Hall
(New York City), the Ace Theatre Hotel (Los Angeles), and the main
stage at the Festival International de Jazz de Montreal. She opened
for Gregory Porter at the Victoria Jazz Festival (summer 2022), and
Melody Gardot (fall 2022), joining her across the east and west
coasts of the US and Europe. She is currently based in Toronto.
