Raven Marching Band

Laura Veirs is an American singer-songwriter based in Portland, Oregon. Born in 1973 in Colorado Springs, Colorado, she attended college in Minnesota where she studied geology and Mandarin Chinese. In her early years, Veirs was a member of the all-girl punk band "Rair Kx!" before transitioning to older country and folk music.

In 1999, Veirs released her self-titled album "Laura Veirs," which was recorded live with just her and guitar. Since then, she has collaborated with producer Tucker Martine on multiple records.

With her unique blend of genres and heartfelt lyrics, Laura Veirs continues to captivate audiences with her soulful music.

Reissue of Laura Veirs 2004 album. On her Nonesuch debut Carbon Glacier, Veirs reimagines folk music in a bravely boundary-crossing way, employing the genre as a jumping-off point to create an intimate, affecting sound entirely her own. The Independent described it as a benchmark by which future Americana releases will be judged. Uncut simply declared Carbon Glacier Veirs first masterpiece. Veirs’ songs are steeped in natural imagery, blending influences ranging from folk to blues to punk. A Seatlle (now Portland) resident by way of Colorado, Veirs background in geology and kinship with the rugged landscape she grew up in meld together with her punk and country blues roots to form an unusual musical outlook.
