Raised in Jackson, Tennessee on a musical diet of great southern soul artists such as Al Green and Aretha Franklin, 23 year old Lauren Pritchard has an eye opening story of how she made it big. Her debut album Wasted in Jackson is an earnest reflection of the trials and tribulations this little songstress fought and won to get to where she is today. Pritchard is a remarkable vocalist with a keen skill and passion for song writing. After getting that extra push from Lisa Marie Presley, Pritchard later teamed up with lyrical genius Eg White to produce an array of captivating ballads and heartfelt songs that are genuinely uplifting. Pritchard’s honest, soulful and confessional blues numbers are performed with enough pop sensibilities to ensure this stunning artist will succeed in this domain.
Dan and I were lucky enough to catch Pritchard’s stunning set just weeks ago at Latitude before having the chance to chat with her in person during rehearsals at John Henry's studio in London. Pritchard was bubbly, animated, interesting and amazingly down to earth so check back soon because the interview is on its way…
