Introducing Lauren Davidson

Even though Lauren grew up in New Jersey and currently resides in New York City this country music artist is all about Nashville.

One particular quote by Lauren was "country songs tell a story and we all have a story to tell" and her songs sure do tell a story.

She feels that the direction country music is headed is great for artists such as herself. "The spectrum is so large and the community is so accepting." (I concur, Lauren.)

It was a pleasure interviewing Lauren and discovering her passion for music.
