Laurie Hope is a psychotherapist living in Ojai who writes songs to keep from going crazy. Her CD entitled TALES OF THE INSECT WOMEN is a collection of songs about dancing centipedes, bikini waxes, Prozac, Lorena Bobbitt and more. This highly entertaining collection of original music exemplifies Hope’s motto: “Give me levity or give me death. No, wait… I didn’t mean that.” Her CD THE OTHER SIDE OF HOPE is a collection of lovely acoustic melodies with heartfelt and meaningful lyrics. Eight Ojai female vocalists joined her on 16 tracks of original songs. Her website is www.laurie-hope.com. Her featured song is MY OLD MAN. That's her on vocals and slide guitar, and Tom Ball on blues harp. David West did the mixing. Laurie does not perform in public, but would love it if someone else performed her work.
