Laurie MacAllister
Shamelessly Melodic Vocal Americana
- Sunday (Aug 16) @ 1:30pm on the Workshop Stage
About
My shows are all about good songs, good stories, and good company. I’m in the middle of a songwriting streak, so you’ll hear brand-new songs making their way into the world for the very first time, alongside old favorites. The music and the vibe are welcoming, joyful, and full of connection. My hope is that you’ll feel like you’re spending time with a good friend. Expect upbeat folk and Americana tunes, and plenty of spontaneous laughs. See you at Black Bear! ❤️🐻❤️
What People Say
Absolutely one of THE best solo shows I have ever seen! Masterful. Everyone was riveted on every word, song, story. I believe every audience member felt as if you were talking/singing directly to them. I certainly did!
-Barnes Newberry, WMVY Radio
“Is Laurie MacAllister seeking perfection? Whether she is or not, her latest album “The Lies the Poets Tell” is defining—a curated collection of songs packed with emotional vibrancy.”
—Mary Sue Twohy, Program Director, SiriusXM Satellite Radio
“Ms. MacAllister wholly inhabits these songs [on her album “The Things I Choose to Do”]. In each, as subtly as a chameleon, she convincingly takes on the persona’s skin. Her commitment to the magic of this material has her, quite simply, singing her heart out.”
—Barnes & Noble
"Laurie, I feel like you ripped a hole in something and burst through."
—Biff McNeil, music fan
"Intention, heart, and soul. It was electric."
-Brian McCloskey, music fan
