Celebrated guitarist and singer-songwriter Laura Cox will embark on her UK tour in May 2026. The six-date UK tour includes Edinburgh’s Voodoo Rooms, Newcastle’s Cluny 2, Bristol’s Louisiana, London’s 100 Club, Manchester’s Gullivers, and Nottingham’s Bodega. The tour news coincides with the release of Laura’s fourth studio album ‘Trouble Coming’ via earMUSIC/VeryRecords. To celebrate album release day, Laura released a new single from the album entitled “The Broken,” with Powerplay Magazine’s Mark Lacey noting the single has a pop/punk vibe which is sure to be a live mainstay. Recorded at ICP Studios in Brussels, the album features 11 tracks, mixed and engineered by Jean-Marc Pelatan at Studio des Muses, and mastered by multi-GRAMMY award-winning Ted Jensen.
In 2008, Laura embarked on her journey as a guitar prodigy on YouTube, where she captivated millions of people with her fiery classic rock covers and blues-infused solos. Her talent and charisma quickly propelled her from viral sensation to a celebrated figure in the rock scene, earning widespread acclaim for her raw, retro-inspired sound. After stepping into the spotlight thanks to her own cover versions of blues and rock classics on YouTube, accumulating 903K subscribers and 105 million views, Laura became the guitarist and singer with the most views in the French rock music scene thanks to her first two albums ‘Hard Blues Shot’ from 2017 and ‘Burning Bright’ from 2019. Her album ‘Head Above Water’ from 2023 received praise for its classic-meets-modern rock fusion, and she’s played prominent stages for rock music in France including Hellfest, Download Festival, and Guitare en Scène. With ‘Trouble Coming’, she reveals a more introspective, soulful side without losing the edge that made her stand out in the first place.
