Laury Webb

Laury Webb has been a fixture on the New York reggae circuit for several years. His original and unique blend of reggae music is suited for any forum and seeks to bridge all generation gaps. With a unique style, Laury literally ignite and explode on stage. He has performed at some of New York City’s premier musical venues, including Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall, The Village Gate, S.O.B.’s, The Ritz, The Lion’s Den, Joe’s Pub, Leopard Lounge, Kenny’s Castaway, and The Baggot Inn.

Laury’s musical career began with a role as keyboardist and later backing vocalist with the reggae vocal group, The Meditations. He also found time to accompany reggae singjay, Eek-A-Mouse, playing keyboards on Mouse’s West German tour. After enjoying years of being a back-up musician, Laury launched a solo career with his TigerBone Band accompanying him. During that period he recorded and released singles, “Robot Taxi”, “Seems the Same”, and “Woman My Queen.”

Now the long anticipated new album has arrived, “The Original Covers Album.” Featuring guests Junior Jazz, Andy Bassford, and Selah Abrams on guitar, the album boasts nine solidly produced original renditions of some well-known classics. New rapper on the scene, Vash, along with former Meditations keyboardist, Jose Angel Scringer, bubbling on organ, help provide a fresh re-working of The Meditations’ own Babylon Trap Them. Jose also guests on piano and production work on Misty, along with bassist, Leroy Guy, weaving a solid and hypnotic bass line. Providing superb backing vocals is long time singing partner, Simone Gordon, and Milton Henry guests on Misty. Laury possess a unique and eclectic vocal style and he’s also willing to “throw down” on organ, as he proves on Westbound Train. And wait till you hear him both bubble on organ and wail on melodica on Tek 5. This album is a true musical treat. Mixed by Tom Moulton and Lloyd Kross (Misty), The Original Covers Album is now available for purchase, and the direct links have been provided for your convenience.
