Country singer Laura Cantrell has balanced different aspects of her music life over the course of a 20-plus years career, whether as a recording artist, radio host, writer, or working parent of a high-school aged musician. Well-known as a recording artist with a devoted following in the US and UK, and as the host of “Dark Horse Radio,” a program devoted to George Harrison on SiriusXM’s The Beatles Channel, or as a performer curating “States of Country,” her monthly live series exploring regional diversity in country music, Cantrell has expressed her passion for country music through various platforms. This June she returns with “Just Like A Rose: The Anniversary Sessions,” an album of original music celebrating her first 20 years of striking this balance. “Just Like A Rose” is a buoyant collection showcasing Cantrell’s songcraft, sense of history, and conviction as a modern woman singing country music.
