A timeless lead vocal, infectious enthusiasm, and an admirable dedication to her goal is what Lara Gatling has to offer. With a voice so passionate and "style true" and with influences such as Neil Young, Ryan Adams, Ray LaMontagne and Brandi Carlile singer/songwriter Lara Gatling has created a country-tinged, pop-rock sound that speaks to crowds of all ages and from all walks of life. Her energy bounces from her music to the crowd where fans become intoxicated with her rich voice. Born and raised on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, in the town of Rock Hall, Lara's life-long goal has been to play and write her own music, and while making her way across the country, she did just that. Lara taught herself to play guitar and write her own songs, and finally moved to Los Angeles in January of 2000. Once she arrived, she played acoustic shows, built her fan base and gained experience by performing live. In 2002, Lara pieced together a band, and over the course of a year they played many venues all around Los Angeles. Lara's passion and energy has spilled off the stage to packed venues such as The Whisky A Go-Go on the world famous Sunset Strip and many other Los Angeles clubs. She possesses a drive that will lead her into the radios of people all over the world where she will be recognized not only as a musician, but also as a woman with incredible spirit and ambition. In 2003, Lara was featured on the cable show "Stephanie Jaeger's Celebrity Showcase" which led her to her to working with her manager/producer, Jimmi Mayweather. In 2009, Lara released her first LP titled, "One By One", which you can find on iTunes, Amazon.com and CD Baby. Lara is currently playing shows and headed back into the studio. |
