Forget Your Boring Brown Bag Lunch by Memphis Means Music
April 22, 2010 The Memphis Music Foundation presents Tuesday Tunes in downtown’s Court Square, as a part of Downtown Alive. In association with the Center City Commission, we will feature select MRC members each Tuesday with performances in Court Square from 11:45 am to 1:00 pm. Local country music star Trey Jewell kicked off the series this week to an enthusiastic crowd of downtowners looking to spice up their lunchtime routine. If you’re looking to support Memphis music even further, check out the lunch happenings the rest of the week. Each Friday, Live From Memphis will showcase artists from their popular “60 Seconds Live” show. This past week featured artists Jeff Pruitt, Lauren Strange, and Darren J. Up next week- Jeff Hulett and Holly Cole. For the full Downtown Alive lunch schedule, check out the Downtown Memphis website. So if you’re tired of eating the same turkey sandwich at your desk every day, get out and enjoy the weather and great Memphis music in Court Square. The series will continue throughout the summer and we look forward to seeing you there!

The best music comes out of Memphis, y’all. by Sarah Fesmire
The Strange EP will be released in 2010 (one of the highlights of the new year)! The EP recordings really demonstrate Lauren Strange’s songwriting ability and lend a new warmth and depth to her music and vocals. Check Lauren out on Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter! And join The Strange EP group on facebook for more updates on its upcoming release!

Lauren Strange by The Independent Music Scene
Lauren Strange is a pop artist and writer with a careful sound that allows the listener to reflect. Well written and well executed. There is depth to both the content of the lyrics and the music itself. She ranges from songs you can dance to to songs you want to escape into. She hails from Memphis Tennessee, and the porcelain southern sound can be heard. Some of her influences are Aimee Mann, Brandi Carlile, Emerson Hart, Neil Young, Nirvana, Ryan Adams, Tori Amos. Song I like are "Never Far" and "Stronger." They can be found at her Myspace: http://www.myspace.com/listentolaurenstrange
