Lauren Monroe W/ Legendary Drummer Rick Allen at City Winery Boston

City Winery Boston presents Lauren Monroe w/ Legendary Drummer Rick Allen live on March 13th at 7:30pm.

New York-born, California-based polymath Lauren Monroe is a gifted singer-songwriter, who tells stories of transformation and shifts consciousness through her musical performances. Her nuanced understanding of human behavior informing her music, which she sees as “a heart-based experience” comes from her vast knowledge as healing arts and Energy Medicine teacher and facilitator.

Released in 2022, Messages From Aphrodite, Monroe’s third album—and her second in collaboration with acclaimed producer Jim Scott—widens the aperture opened by its predecessor, 2021’s Under the Wolf Moon, bringing her musical and spiritual vision into even sharper focus. The title, which references the ancient Greek goddess of love in its myriad aspects, signifies the emotional expanse of Monroe’s songs, to which she brings a rarefied degree of insight and compassion, enabling her to nimbly plumb the depths and scale the heights of the human condition in her song writing.
