Album Notes

"Heather's voice has the delicacy of an angel, the
power of a soul diva, the swing of a jazzer and the
playfulness of a popstress." - Panos Panay, Founder,
Sonicbids

Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, Heather was raised in
Dallas, Texas by her New York City native mother and
Ohio native father. Heather left her Southern roots to
head west toward California in the summer of 2000,
after a year long post-graduation European backpacking
adventure.

Heather worked for a San Francisco based Advertising
firm during the Dot-com boom and fall. At which time,
she chose to leave her cushy salary, cubicle, and
401K, to roll the sparkling dice toward her teenage
dream of becoming a legendary singer and performer.
Since then, she has never looked back.

Heather has been performing consistently in the San
Francisco Bay Area for the last five years with
special appearances in New York, Los Angeles,
Washington DC, Austin, TX and Milan, Italy.

*Performance Highlights*

Heather was awarded "2006 Song of The Year" for the

of Me", won first place and was produced and
co-written with legendary songwriter Bonnie Hayes
(Bonnie Raitt) and cellist and songwriter, Matthew
Schoening.

In the summer of 2006, Heather had the incredible
opportunity of opening up for Fiona Apple at The
Chronicle Pavilion Side Stage in Concord, California.
In addition, Heather was accepted to perform at
Austin's world-renowned South By Southwest Music
Festival for the 2006 Go Girls Music Showcase.

In December 2005, Heather was showcased as one of San
Francisco's up and coming new artists at the San
Francisco Recording Academy Grammy Event.

In the fall of 2005, The Heather Lauren Band had the
honor of opening for Tori Amos at The Chronicle
Pavilion Side Stage in Concord, California.

Heather has co-written with Bonnie Hayes (Bonnie
Raitt) and Narada Michael Walden (Jeff Beck, Mariah
Carey, Whitney Houston). She has opened for The
Salvador Santana Band, Ledisi, Maria Muldaur, Dan
Hicks and performed alongside Jorge Santana.

Heather had the extreme privilege of performing one of
her original songs, "Live on Through Me", for the New
York Fire Department at Ground Zero in New York on
September 11, 2004.

For two years, Heather performed with the
World-Renowned, San Francisco Glide Ensemble Gospel
Choir, home to Cecil William's Glide Church.

Heather holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in
Communications with an emphasis in Business and
