Following in the footsteps of previous Chordblossom Kickstart competition winners such as SOAK and In An Instant, Strabane local Lauren Bird is set for the stage as she launches her single ‘Goodbye Good Luck’ on Friday 28th August in Belfast’s Bar With No Name.

Joined on the night by Isobel Anderson and Ciara O’Neill, Lauren will be in good company as she delivers her unique acoustic folk/pop stylings. Citing Alanis Morissette and Regina Spektor as influences, this is sure to be something a little different.

Follow Lauren on Facebook, Twitter, Soundcloud or just have a look at her website for more charming folk songs and updates. Her single ‘Goodbye Good Luck’ is released today, so here’s a little taste (this isn’t the shiny finished version by the way). You can also RSVP to the single launch here!

Hi, I'm Laura. I'm 30 years old and have a degree in Journalism with Photo-Imaging at the University of Ulster. I have an undying love for Belfast and all that it has to offer, an undying love for sleeping, Tegan and Sara, trashy tv shows, foreign snack-foods and being irresponsible with money. I also quite like origami, reading, jazz, hip-hop, dubstep, anything acoustic and Food Network TV. I've written for The Big List, Culture NI, Chatterbox and The Echo, as well as writing for BBC Across the Line.
