Laura Veirs

Laura Veirs is a singer-songwriter, who grew up in Colorado, USA - where she often spent summers camping with her family - which gave her much of her song-writing inspiration. She recently transplanted to Portland, Oregon from Seattle, Washington. Veirs has said that she didn't seriously listen to music until she was in her 20s; instead, she just heard what was in her environment. She listened to folk / country / classical / pop, around the house & on the radio, during her youth.
