About Me

I wasn't born so much as I was sliced out. My name is Lauren Lavin, I play guitar and I sing. Mostly I write. Sometimes I think I'm too young and frustrated for this. Then I remember that young, frustrated people make music that's pretty relatable to other young, frustrated people, of which there are many.
