About Me

When Laura Allen first picked up the guitar at age ten, it was clear that she was a girl destined to be breathtaking. Laura has always been fascinated with music and poetry, and quickly found that she had tenacity for both. By the age of 13, she had begun leading worship and writing music. By the time she was 16, not only did she have enough original material to write a couple of albums, but she was also one of the key worship leaders in the fellowship that she attends in Dallas, TX. Laura, at age 20, has graduated from Christ for the Nations Institute.
Laura's songs portray her delicate innocence and unique perspective of the Father, weaving literally lover-to-Lover songs. Her lyrics are reminiscent of Rich Mullins--poetic, sweet, endearing, and thought provoking. While simple, her music is rich and passionate, layered with the breathy touch of the piano, strings, and upright bass combined with an intense jazz and rock fusion that is truly unique and refreshing for any listener. Her voice conveys a wide range of colorful tones, whether it be reaching for the heavens or whispering reveries.
