LAUREN
HOFFMAN
HER CAREER
 I
am in the process of promoting my second record. My first, "megiddo"
came out on Virgin Records in 1997.
HER SUPPORTERS AND INFLUENCES
David Lowery, who put up studio time and started producing me on
spec when I was first getting started, and my dad, who encouraged
me to write and play guitar when I was 13. My influences mostly
are Elliott Smith, John Lennon, Billie Holiday, Jeff Buckley, Zeppelin,
Mozart, the Cure, Sinead O'Conner... there are too many to mention
really, but that will do for now.
ABOUT HER RECORD LABEL
It's called "Free Union Records". I started the label with the money
and the masters that I got back from Virgin when I left (very generous
of them). I started it because I wanted to take the pressure of
major corporate bottom lines off of my quirky little songs. because
I wanted to have FUN again, and to support music that I LIKE instead
of what fits the lowest-common-denominator.
ABOUT MP3
I am still on the fence. sometimes I get e-mails from people who
say that they have all of my songs on their computer on MP3 and
promise to buy the record when they can... I'm glad that they like
the music, and I'm glad that they can hear it even if they can't
afford it, but i hope that it won't make it even harder for indie
bands to make their mark.

GIRL STUFF
I like black clothes, MAC make-up, vegan food, little-known East
Village designers' boutiques, goth boys, living clean, playing music,
making music, writing music, singing, listening to music, you get
the idea : )
