Humming by the Flowered Vine is the muchanticipated third album (and MATADOR debut) by Nashvilleborn, New Yorkbased performer LAURA CANTRELL.
Produced by JD FOSTER (RICHARD BUCKNER, MARC RIBOT), Humming by the Flowered Vine features ten extraordinary songs both crafted and caught.
New York figures prominently in both the infectious 14th Street and Letters, a previously unreleased LUCINDA WILLIAMS song dating back to her days as a struggling folk singer.
Born and raised in Nashville, Laura moved to New York City to attend Columbia University.
After graduation, she recorded a CD and several singles with the band BRICKS, featuring her college friend MAC MCCAUGHAN (of SUPERCHUNK and MERGE RECORDS). A move to Brooklyn led to a friendship with JOHN FLANSBURGH of THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS, who recruited her to sing on The Guitar on the bands 1992 album Apollo 18.
In 2000. Lauras debut album, Not the Tremblin Kind, reached an international audience and was championed by legendary BBC DJ JOHN PEEL, who called it my favourite record of the last ten years and possibly my life. With the release of When the Roses Bloom Again in 2002, she was handpicked by ELVIS COSTELLO to open on his U.S. tour. Both albums also garnered fourstar reviews in ROLLING STONE, and led to appearances on the GRAND OLE OPRY, LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN OBRIEN and the NEWPORT FOLK FESTIVAL.
THE WASHINGTON POST Its Cantrell\'s voice vulnerable and at times downright fragilethat evokes inner strengths as old as the hills and as tough as the tenements, a voice that begs to be heard.
