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)
“The most striking fault in work by young or beginning novelists, submitted for criticism, is irrelevance—due either to infatuation or indecision. To direct such an author’s attention to the imperative of relevance is certainly the most useful—and possibly the only—help that can be given.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
