About Laura Nyro

The mysterious, raw, and curiously unsung singer/songwriter and pianist responsible for some of great hits of the late sixties and early seventies. She has been covered, sampled, and cited by a multitude of artists; including The Fifth Dimension, Barbra Streisand, Morrisey, Kanye West, Elton John, Todd Rundgren, and more.

Her musical career spanned almost three decades. Her repertoire includes songs like “Stoned Soul Picnic,” “Save The Country,” “Sweet Blindness,” and “Wedding Bell Blues.” She recorded nine studio albums, with her 1968 release “Eli and the Thirteenth Confession” generally considered her magnum opus.

While her vivid lyrics (that often included themes of love, death, loss, and pleasure) and creative compositions (noted for their layered and “opulent” quality) have been almost universally acclaimed by crtitics, her voice has been described as an “acquired taste.” While loosely labeled a “pop artist, her influences included jazz, doo-wop, showtunes, and gospel.

After her death in 1997, she was posthumously honored with an induction to the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame.
