Laurie Dameron- Windchime Productions Her singing, guitar playing and character are something to behold. Many times I was lucky enough to have her play just for me. Laurie’s talent, character and intentions to save our environment are beyond measure. She says (as I remember, “My goal is to make people feel happy when they listen to my music” Happy doesn’t come close to how I’d describe how her music and humanitarian ways inspire me. Laurie is an astonishingly talented artist and her character is outstanding. More...

Laurie entertained the people living at Village Place Apartments in Longmont, as part of their holiday entertainment. She was talented, engaging and everyone really enjoyed her performance. She really made the songs fun and when she sang her own songs, people responded to it. We'll definitely do this again. More...
