Laura Cortese is the bandleader and primary songwriter for Laura Cortese & The Dance Cards, a group of four musicians expanding the boundaries of what an indie-folk band can be. Laura Cortese & the Dance Cards take their extensive string music background, add their knowledge of folk and roots music, and incorporate an edgy pop sensibility to create their latest album, BITTER BETTER. A stunning lesson in all the ways string instruments can be played \u2013 bowed, plucked, percussively \u2013 the album showcases Cortese and multi-instrumentalist producer Sam Kassirer (Lula Wiles, Lake Street Dive) striving to capture the most adventurous approach to each moment. The result is an album that incorporates dance-worthy foundational grooves, synth, and loops to push the boundaries of the genre. BITTER BETTER was released on JULY 17 on Compass Records. With BITTER BETTER, Laura Cortese & The Dance Cards throw out the rulebook, creating a beautifully vivid, musically unexpected canvas from their refreshingly unconventional perspective. Laura Cortese is also a music educator and co-founder of the Miles of Music Camp, which is celebrating its 10th year in 2020.-- \nLaura Cortese & the Dance Cards https://thisislauracortese.com\n:: New singles OUT NOW on Compass Records \n:: Full album, \u201cBITTER BETTER\u201d coming July 17\nTreat You Better - https://CompassRecords.lnk.to/3Y0knEM\nCorduroy Jacket - https://CompassRecords.lnk.to/DBSjCEM
