The FAC's Online Artist Sessions are monthly, intimate and informal Q&A's for FAC PRO members with an experienced artist or industry figure. They aim to provide education, advice and kinship in our artist community. They are free to members and exclusively for artists. Spaces are limited, so we recommend signing up quickly to secure a spot. This month we welcome our special guest lau.ra.
About lau.ra
Laura Bettinson, also known by her stage names FEMME and lau.ra, is an English singer, songwriter, producer and DJ.
Described as a “one-woman powerhouse’” by BBC Radio 1’s Annie Mac, Lau.ra is the real deal when it comes to unadulterated artistry. As composer, producer, vocalist and DJ, Lau.ra has eschewed major label interest in order to maintain her musical vision without interference. This uncompromising approach hasn’t stopped her mixing with the great and the good: Lau.ra has toured the USA with Charli XCX, featured on tracks by Sasha, Justin Martin, Four Tet and David Lynch. Lau.ra is also close collaborator and vocalist in the band Ultraísta with Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich. Lau.ra's music has appeared in popular TV campaigns with Netflix, Made in Chelsea, Boohoo, and most recently composed the soundtrack for an Adidas Originals China advert and music for the Pro-Evolution Soccer 2019 video game.
