Album Notes

Piecing It Together is Laura Sawosko's second full length album. It succeeds her initial solo CD - depicting her journey away from the world she once knew, Fall From Home. Her songs not only reflect her own journey, but draw you into your own as well, through ruthless honesty and childlike images. Her vocal technique is raw and unrehearsed which parallels her guitar, while the piano introduces another precious layer of melodic and technical grace.

Laura began her ambitious solo career as a singer/songwriter in 1999, after leaving a band which opened for the 1999 Phoenix Lilith Fair with Sarah McLachlin, Sheryl Crow and Dido. She had too much to say and wanted to share her original songs with an audience, rather than perform someone elses. Later that year, Laura composed the musical score for the independent film, An Intimate Friendship, by Filling The Gap Productions (now on sale at Best Buy on DVD). You also may have seen Laura on NBC's #1 rated show, Fear Factor. In a brave attempt to promote her music and possibly win $50,000 to assist her musical career, she had the rare opportunity to ride a bull and eat cow brains. Unfortunately, she was unable to finish the required amount of brains in the designated time. Laura just completed her first West coast tour and will be heading back on the road to promote Piecing It Together this Fall.
