Tranquil piano combined with a tapestry of shimmering acoustic and ambient instrumentation takes you on an exquisite journey of America’s most mystical, sacred and enchanting places.

Each piece is Laura’s original composition, except an arrangement of L.V. Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata, lushly orchestrated with piano and strings. Inspired by America’s most magical and sacred sites, this album consists of four song collections:

1) Magical Creations: with songs for America’s Stonehenge and its shadows of the Druids in Salem Massachusetts, Chaco Canyon and the Anasazi culture of New Mexico, and the miraculous Coral Castle in south Florida.

2) Sacred Symbols: with songs about the sacred Bighorn Medicine Wheel in Wyoming, Tongass Island’s Totem Poles in Alaska, and the mysterious Serpent Effigy Mound in Ohio.

3) Mysterious Messages: with songs influenced by the fascinating Red Rock Ridge Petroglyphs of Jeffers Minnesota, the ghostly Pictograph Caves of Montana, and the Heavener Runestone of Oklahoma.

4) Nature’s Splendor, with songs dedicated to beautiful Sedona Arizona, the Hawaiian Islands and their fires within, and Laura’s favorite, beloved and majestic Mt. Shasta of Northern California.

For more information and stories about the songs visit Laura’s Mystical Inspirations Page.

Produced by renowned artist Chris Camozzi, (appearing with artists Jeff Lorber, Michael Bolton, Maria Carey, Barbara Streisand and many others) who's electric and acoustic guitar skills also embellish the album. Also featured are Mary Pitchford on violin, Diane Grubbe on contemporary and wooden flute and Scott Fuller's orchestral strings. Original cover art was created exclusively for the album by award winning artist, Johanna Pieterman.

Mystical America follows in the tradition of Laura’s previous release with the inclusion of a added treat. Enclosed within each CD jewel case is fresh, hand-made desert sage incense in honor of the ancient ritual tradition of burning sage as a spiritual blessing of purification, peace and harmony.
