Details:
the Songwriter and Musician
Lara Herscovitch is a unique and charismatic emerging singer and songwriter: Her original music is a skillful blend of acoustic/folk, pop, and world styles. Her songs are smart, poetic and witty, merging soulful melodies with “perfect wordcrafting” (New Haven Advocate) and “keen intelligence” (Ear Candy). She is “a remarkable performer” (WSHU), sings with a voice “clear and smooth like expensive liquor” (Northeast Performer), and whether “complemented by her band or going solo, Lara charms her audience with warmth and humor” (Rhapsody In Brew). Always engaging with a wide variety of audiences, she is a member of the Performing Artist rosters New England Foundation for the Arts and CT Commission on Culture & Tourism.
To date Lara has three albums to her credit, Juror Number 13 (2006), There (2002), and Sin Tierra (2000). “Herscovitch is going in the right direction” (Rambles) with her “great and refreshing sound” (Acoustic Café) – in sum, she is “one hell of a find” (New Haven Advocate).

“Herscovitch is polished and cool, and swings convincingly from moody to upbeat, in English and Spanish” (Record-Journal). Her songs cover a wide range of topics from personal to global/sociological. No matter which of her songs or albums you hear, “the more you listen, the more you will like what she does” (Green Man Review); it is “pure musical poetry” (The [CT shoreline] Courier).
the Person
Lara was raised in New York and lives in Connecticut. She narrowly escaped attending law school, and was trained instead as a macro social worker. She has worked in the U.S., Latin America, Africa, and Asia, on behalf of disadvantaged individuals – focusing on education, early childhood and youth development, community development, human services, and the environment. Designed as a socially responsible company in keeping with her spirit, Herscovitch’s la Rama Records (“the branch”) uses recycled products and donates 10% of CD sales to nonprofit environmental organizations.
