Laura Meade is a classically trained soprano and singer-songwriter with a special fondness for the American Songbook. She has performed her unique set of standards through the years with her pianist / accompanist / uncle Terry Meade.
She is thrilled to bring this current iteration of her show, "Standard Deviation," to her native Long Island at the beautiful Jazz Loft in Stony Brook, accompanied by piano and upright bass.
Meade has studied Gregorian chant, performed in choirs, and appeared on the musical theater stage. She is a pianist, singer in a progressive rock band (IZZ), herbalist, horticulturist, and aspiring beekeeper. All of these experiences are connected and help to form the tapestry of "Standard Deviation."
Laura Meade's most recent album of original music, The Most Dangerous Woman in America (available on Spotify and all streaming services) is a deep, personal, and emotional dive into the life of actress Jean Seberg and has received wide acclaim, including this from Prog Magazine in the UK: “Both vigorously timely and gently subversive…this is a release dominated by big, adventurous songs with coolly intricate arrangements and Meade’s angelic sonority a vivid and irresistible focal point.”
Laura Meade has performed as a musical theatre artist in shows such as I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change, Into the Woods, The Fantasticks, The Wizard of Oz, Tapestry, and The Sound of Music.
