Let’s travel back in time to the early-2000s. The pop-rock sounds of Avril Lavigne and Michelle Branch dominated the radio, and the sight of chunky highlights and Converse was a daily occurrence. Lyrics were hopelessly romantic, and shows like Charmed and Buffy The Vampire Slayer lit the television screen.
It was a simpler time–one that UK-based artist Laura Musgrave draws inspiration from in her songwriting. Blending guitar-driven arrangements, confessional lyrics, and modern, punchy production, the songstress expresses the highs and lows of love, heartbreak, and adulthood. Releasing standout singles “Habit Of A Lifetime” and “Play Again”, Musgrave writes songs that feel destined for a movie soundtrack. As CLOUT described it: “raw and earnest songwriting that packs a sonic punch.” Now that’s pop-rock at its finest.
Since her debut, Laura Musgrave has garnered significant industry recognition for her work, including recent consideration for the prestigious GRAMMY Awards® in the categories of Best Rock Performance and Best Rock Song. She won the International Female Single of the Year (Gold Award) at the 2023 International Singer-Songwriters Association (ISSA) Awards. Her music has found a global audience, with airplay across international radio stations, from the UK’s BBC Radio to stations in the USA and Australia, reflecting her rising influence in the pop-rock scene.
Beyond the stage and studio, Musgrave devotes her time to mentoring up-and-coming artists as part of Help Musicians’ Co-Pilot Network, an organisation dedicated to supporting the next generation of musicians pursuing their dreams. The cycle of creating art, releasing it into the world, and sharing how she got there represents everything Musgrave believes in. And she shows no signs of slowing down.
