"Laura Pursell: Somewhere in this Room
Backed by lush instrumentation, this jazz performer pours her buttery vocals over each phrase. She wrote the lyrics too, with gorgeous melodies by Andrew Bonime. It's a beautifully designed package, from the creative and interesting liner notes to the elegant photos by Mark Robert Halper, within a warm monochrome design. It's so lovely I'd hang it on a wall. It perfectly matches the music too so if you saw it in a store or on line, you'd know that inside was jazz so smooth you could spread it on bread. (Reviewed by Jamie Anderson)

Welcome to my website! In 2008, I recorded my 4th full-length CD, "Somewhere in this Room," my first CD of original material, under the Cloudshine Global Music label. This was a collaboration with Andy Bonime - Andy wrote the melodies, and I wrote all the lyrics and sang on all the tracks. This was a very special project, and we recruited my father, composer/arranger/pianist Bill Pursell, to write an orchestral overture, the arrangement for the title track, and an instrumental finale. I'm very proud of the work that went into this album, and I'm so gratified by the heart-warming reactions and responses I've received over the past few months.
