Lauren Davidson is unconventional, inimitable, and unmissable. Blending New York City vibes
with the rich tones of country music, she has created a genre all her own, and audiences and
critics can’t get enough of her. Audio Fuzz Magazine described Lauren as “an early Patsy Cline
or Linda Ronstadt; with that I can do this myself attitude” while Digital Journal dubbed her “the
most underrated female artist” on the scene. She has made countless radio appearances,
opened up for Old Dominion, LOCASH, and Carly Pearce, and this year performed at the creme
of New York venues, Madison Square Garden, as part of PBR’s “Unleash the Beast” tour. She
is New York’s own Urban-Country maven.
Born to a musical family, Davidson began singing and performing with her father during her
childhood. As she grew up, the two of them started writing songs together, giving her the taste
for a career in music. As a unit they have worked on some of her biggest releases, even as
Davidson branches out to co-write with other country up-and-comers. Her early offerings
“Sometimes” and “Loaded Gun” immediately turned heads with their palpable attitude, vocal
explosivity, and a level of lyrical nuance not normally seen in a newcomer. Lauren embedded
herself in the New York musical consciousness, before beginning frequent trips to Nashville
where she has similarly wooed fans and industry.
Never one to forget her roots, in her home state Davidson created the Urban Country Jam, an
event that puts rising country stars as openers to major acts, allowing them to meet the
representation that they need. All the while she has made her own live show one of the best
around, hitting up top-tier venues both in NYC and across the country. In doing so, she has
shared the stage with veteran performers like Justin Moore, Rodney Adkins, and The Marshall
Tucker Band. In her downtime, she has strung together a series of radio appearances that
include NY Country 94.7, The Boot, Taste of Country, Raised Rowdy, the Ty Bentli show, WSM
Radio and many more.
Lauren’s single “Soaking Up Every Second” was released to critical acclaim in 2019 with
features on Popdust, Whiskey Riff, Taste of Country, and Spotify's New Music Nashville, to
name but a few. Taste of Country called the piece “an unabashed celebration of making the
most out of every moment,” and Popdust described it as “a smooth-as-silk combination of Lady
Antebellum and Kelsea Ballerini, gently [mingled with] her own powerhouse gusto.”
When she’s not selling out shows in the Tri-State area, and opening for A-list acts across the
US, Lauren is crafting her latest EP in the studio. The release, titled “Love Ain’t Fair”, will feature
five unique takes on the prototypical ‘love song’. In keeping with her brand, Davidson promises
these will be “anything but traditional.”
