Laura Cantrell
  Check out the reviews and previews of Laura's recent East Coast tour in the Washington Post, Boston Globe, Philadelphia City Paper and New Haven Advocate, read her rant on her musical heroines at the record collector blog Boogie Woogie Flu and hear her recent appearance on WNYC public radio.
  Laura's new digital-only covers EP, "Trains and Boats and Planes," is now available for download from iTunes, Amazon, eMusic, and most digital retailers (but is NOT being sold in stores). Laura's first new recordings in three years are travel-themed, based on the Burt Bacharach-Hal David title track, along with thoughtfully-chosen songs by Roger Miller, Merle Haggard, John Hartford, Gordon Lightfoot, New Order, and three previously-released tracks. Read a new interview with Laura from Pop Matters and a story on the new release in the The Times of London.
  Laura's acoustic version of the New Order song "Love Vigilantes" is included on the soundtrack of the new film, "Body of War," a profile of Iraq veteran Tomas Young. The soundtrack is available now from Sire Records, and also features tracks by Eddie Vedder, Bruce Springsteen, Billy Bragg, and others.
  Laura's acclaimed "Radio Thrift Shop," a NYC radio institution since 1992, is now streaming live worldwide on WFMU every other Wednesday morning from 6-9 am EST, with all show archives and playlists available for streaming on demand.
  Check out Laura's interpretation of the NYC subway map, featuring streaming audio of her entire 2005 album "Humming by the Flowered Vine."
