about
The first thing you notice is the voice. Sweet, husky and hypnotic, it has also been described as being “full of knowing”. And then the songs; honest (sometimes achingly so) and uplifting, melodic and accessible, yet containing a depth that is sometimes belied by the sheer beauty of the music. Singer/songwriter LauraDoyle’s first CD, “No Easy Answers” (2001) won her instant recognition when her songs were featured prominently in films such as the award winning “Suddenly Naked” and television series like “Dawson’s Creek”. She has a knack for getting to the heart of things and the entertainment industry has noticed. This easy marriage with the screen should come as no surprise, as Doyle began her career in the entertainment industry as a TV screenwriter in Los Angeles and Vancouver on mostly teen programs including "Neon Rider", "Madison", MTV's "Undressed" and the CBS drama "Early Edition". “Dark Horse” picks up where “No Easy Answers” left off, and reveals growth and greater maturity in Doyle’s music. Recorded live in the studio with her band, Passionfish, the music has an immediacy that is lacking in many contemporary releases, and in all the right ways has the ring of truth about it. The new record is all real, all live off the floor, all performance. With a new band, a new sound and a new producer, Doyle has never sounded better Finding it difficult to perform the last record live, Laura Doyle decided she wanted to capture the dynamics of what had already been happening
