Album Notes

FEATHER RECORDING ARTIST BIO
Lauren Passarelli's insatiable desire for guitar started when she was four years old and wanted to be a Beatle. Now a professor at Berklee College of Music she is known as one of the most distinctive guitarists in Boston, recognized as a great guitarist by such notables as Pat Metheny. Lauren's orchestrated guitar parts incorporate more than just rhythm or lead guitar playing. Audibly there is a rare combination of both simultaneously harmonically rich, melodically memorable and rhythmically alive.

She hooked up with producer & arranger Cindy Brown whose writing and impressionistic textures add a sophisticated edge to the songs. Lyrically their songs reflect great depth of thought and emotion. Together they define the sound of their art/rock band, Two Tru ® - a compelling combination of influences resulting in an original stamp on songwriting with signature guitar & keyboard arrangements that are as memorable as the songs themselves.

Two Tru's debut album, Among The Ruins received great national & international reviews and was named one of the most unique inde albums from the U.S. on European Radio.

Lauren is on the Artist rosters and endorsed by such companies as Martin, Fender, Washburn, Guild, Danelectro, Hofner & Yamaha, Crowley & Tripp, Avantone, ADK, ADA Amplification, Electro Voice, Joe Meek, Vox, Marshall, Rane, Sennheiser, DR Handmade Strings, D'Addario, Rane, Tech 21, Groove Tubes & Studiomaster.
