Album Notes

"Celestial vocals layered over sophisticated guitar riffs are hallmarks of Laurie Dameron's compositions. They encompass a variety of musical styles from moody acoustic pieces to rock, jazz and blues influences." -- Freelance writer Marilyn Gleason.

Utah Dream is "a CD consisting of classic folk, jazz and blues underlined by the lilt of a voice so distinct that only one word could describe it: beautiful." -- Laurence Washington, Boulder Daily Camera music critic.

"Delicate voice and confident guitar mark her work..." -- David Thomas, Denver Post

Utah Dream is superbly engineered by Wind Machine's Joe Scott and impressively produced by Dameron demonstrating her imagination and ability to put together instruments, rhythms and harmonies that result in truly creative compositions. She does all of the acoustic guitar work and 95% of the electric lead work. The CD Features some of the finest Denver and national musicians in the USA.
