Musical Work
In 2001, Laura Dawn released her first album Believer on Extasy International, an offshoot of Japanese label Extasy Records created by X Japan drummer Yoshiki. According to Laura Dawn's MySpace profile, the label folded while she was working on her second album, which was never completed. She was the featured vocalist on Moby's platinum selling album Hotel, and she toured the world with him for nine months in 2005. Her current music project, "The Little Death", is a collaboration of original songs co-written and performed with Moby and musician/composer Daron Murphy. The music is inspired by vintage blues, film noir and 1960s psychedelic rock.

Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or work:
“Then, bringing me the joy we feel when wee see a work by our favorite painter which differs from any other that we know, or if we are led before a painting of which we have until then only seen a pencil sketch, if a musical piece heard only on the piano appears before us clothed in the colors of the orchestra, my grandfather called me the [hawthorn] hedge at Tansonville, saying, “You who are so fond of hawthorns, look at this pink thorn, isn’t it lovely?””
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“People run away from the name subsidy. It is a subsidy. I am not afraid to call it so. It is paid for the purpose of giving a merchant marine to the whole country so that the trade of the whole country will be benefitted thereby, and the men running the ships will of course make a reasonable profit.... Unless we have a merchant marine, our navy if called upon for offensive or defensive work is going to be most defective.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
