Laura Stevenson

“Music is a resource we can tap into to heal ourselves,” Laura Stevenson says. She’s talking about her studies in a music therapy graduate program, but her explanation parallels the overarching message of her sixth full-length album Late Great—a record that finds Stevenson excavating the messy emotions of heartbreak for the very first time. “When I started this new career path a few years ago, I kind of quieted my own healing relationship to music, just because I honestly didn’t have time, but this record was me getting back to it. This was meprocessing, and reconnecting with that part of myself and it carried me through.”
