| "TRAINS AND BOATS AND PLANES" HAVE ARRIVED!! A brand new digital-only covers EP, "Trains and Boats and Planes," is now available for download from iTunes, Amazon, eMusic, and most digital retailers (but is NOT being sold in stores). Laura's first new recordings in three years are travel-themed, based on the Burt Bacharach-Hal David title track, along with thoughtfully-chosen songs by Roger Miller, Merle Haggard, John Hartford, Gordon Lightfoot, New Order, and three previously-released tracks. Read a story on the new release in the The Times of London. |
