Universal Republic will release Lauren Pritchard’s debut album, Wasted in Jackson, on October 26th. Pritchard, who starred in the original Broadway production of Spring Awakening, recorded the album with producer/Ivor Novello-winning songwriter Eg White (Duffy, Adele) in London, where early reviews have been phenomenal.
The Sunday Times of London praised the 22-year-old American’s “beautiful, soaring voice and…songs that roll and swell with Carole King and Norah Jones-like country-soul catchiness”while Elle (U.K.) said it’s “sure to have a place on the best of 2010 lists…mesmerizing” and the Daily Mail heralded her as “the next big thing.”
