On february 16th Laurrhie Deborah Brouns was born in Port-Au-Prince
( Haiti) . At the age of two she moved to Holland with her Haitian mother and Dutch father.
During her early years, it was clear that Laurrhie had a passion for music. She would sing along with her favorite artists, and give little shows for family and friends.When she reached the age of five, Laurrhie first performed in the Meervaart (1995) in front of all the kids in her junior highschool and their parents. The audience responded very well to the little artist . She loved the attention, and the lime lights. At the age of nine she attended the National Ballet Academy, and was a student there for almost two years. Untill she decided that it was time for a change. So she did musical, and took dancing/vocal classes. She also shined as the leading lady Dorothy in the SJMA Broadway production The wizard of Oz and toured all across Holland. She liked doing musical, but it was not what she loved the most. No her hearts desire was, and remained singing. So she quit musical, and focused on music.Laurrhie first began writing her songs at the age of eleven. But it wasn't thát serious at the time. Untill a friend encouraged her to start writing for real.She followed that advice, and still writes all of her songs on her own till this day on.
When she was twelve, she performed a lot at her highschool. Weither it was a prom, or just an event that the school had organised. Her fellow students loved every bit of every show she did. And so Laurrhie kept on performing.On April 23rd of 2005, Laurrhie won the title of Best singing student of Amsterdam At the Amsterdams Scholieren Songfestival ( Student Songfestival Of Amsterdam). After that she was unstoppable. She wrote and wrote. Performed and performed at places like Paradiso ,Melkweg,Bitterzoet and many more.Laurrhie is now working on her debut album with the very talented producer Darin G.She is also studying music at Amsterdam's Conservatory , from which she will (hopefully) graduate in 2011.Everywhere she goes, no matter what music they prefer everybody agrees on one thing.
This girl is on fire, and posseses not only a powerfull,strong,beautifull singing voice but also a warm , energetic , spontanious personality.Its almost hard to believe that this girl is just seventeen years old.,and already hotter than ever.
It all started out as a dream of a little girl, and now this girl is realizing that dream.
So keep ya eyes open, but your ears even more . Cauz she is coming faster than you know..
And she is just getting started..
