Laine Henderson wears her heart on her sleeve, writing songs that are addictively catchy yet unbounded by empty pop cliches.Laine was brought up among the spectacular beauty of Vancouver, Canada,where she was immersed in music and performance from an early age. She began songwriting while attaining a Bachelor of Music at Berklee College of Music, Boston. Later, Laine moved to New York City where she continued to write and perform introspective songs about love, redemption,heartbreak and the unending possibilities of life. Playing regularly at CB's Gallery, The Bitter End and The Living Room led to invitations and performances at the ‘New York Songwriters Circle’, the ‘National Academy of Popular Music Showcase’ and the well-respected ‘BMI Songwriters Workshop’.Her debut album "Frostbite", was released soon after and Jeff Bercovici, of New York Street Beat, best explains: “If Suzanne Vega were dead, there'd be reason to suspect her ghost was animating singer/songwriter Laine Henderson. Henderson shares Vega's earnestness, her penchant for poetic reflection, and her high standards of musicianship. Like Vega's, Henderson's music offers a look at a variety of universal human experiences – loneliness, rejection, spirituality, renewal – from a perspective that is uniquely feminine, although Henderson's lyrics are considerably less abstract than her predecessor. Henderson borrows elements from a variety of traditions, from jazz to flamenco to Dustbowl blues, all the while keeping her roots planted firmly in the soil of folk rock.”Honourable mention for ‘Down South’ at the John Lennon Songwriting contest together with her next release, a self titled EP, led to more invitations to perform at both the Rockgirl Music Conference in Seattle and the Philadelphia Music Conference. As a result, some of Laine’s songs appeared in the independent Bunk Film, ‘Reconciliation’.From there, Laine's musical journey took her to Dublin, Ireland where she quickly established herself on the highly competitive live music scene culminating in a series of headline gigs in the infamous ‘Crawdaddy’s’ club supported by the rising cream of the Irish singer/songwriters scene.She has developed songs for her forthcoming new album,recorded in Connecticut with Chris Delvecchio, At Underground Sound, while successfully gigging around Ireland and touring with ‘The 4 Of Us’, who specifically requested her for their recent national tours.Laine has recently returned to North America and is currently residing in Vancouver.contact: Laine Henderson203-234-1038 604-988-8773
