A review states "...her songs are the warm coffee on a rainy day. Or the oh-so-sought-after light at the end of the tunnel in the world of folk music. She maintains her femininity without being too demanding about it. Her beauty in her words is just as important as her folk music stamina that is very important this day and age..."    -FensePost

"Superb original songs, a great pop sensibility, a beautiful voice...Brino wears her heart on her sleeve." - B Magazine 

"Brino's breathy vocal delivery lends itself perfectly to her catchy and quick-witted refrains..." - Performer  

Laura is an indie folk-pop singer-songwriter based in Annapolis, Maryland. Her music blends elements of folk, rock, and pop, featuring heartfelt lyrics and catchy refrains. Writing since her teens in the late 1990s, Laura's songs have been featured in numerous television shows and films. She has released five solo albums, as well as an album with her band, Lily and the Pearl, a collaboration with her husband, Sean “Dracula” Jackson. 

With performances at venues like Rams Head On Stage and Jammin Java, as well as Rockwood Music Hall and The Bitter End in New York, Laura has captivated audiences across the U.S. Her journey began in the late '90s, leading to the release of six studio albums, including a collaboration with her husband, Sean “Dracula” Jackson, under Lily and the Pearl.

Her latest album, Cactus Moon (2024), reflects a journey through motherhood, trauma, and healing, born from a deeply personal process during a decade-long hiatus. Praised for her "superb original songs" and "breathy vocal delivery," Laura's down to earth delivery and authentic storytelling connect with the audience as she brings them along her journey, often filling the room with both tears and laughter.

In addition to her music, Laura created Cactus Moon Rising, a heartfelt documentary that offers an intimate look into the inspiration and creative process behind her sixth studio album, Cactus Moon. The film chronicles her journey through a decade-long hiatus, a near-death experience during the birth of her second daughter, and her healing through motherhood and trauma. Featuring behind-the-scenes footage and 13 original music videos, Cactus Moon Rising forms a cohesive visual and auditory narrative.

Laura is also the founder of the Songbird Collective, which supports women and non-binary artists by offering mentorship, networking, and performance opportunities in a safe, equitable space free from toxic industry norms.

Laura is currently working on a new album set for release in 2025.
