About Lauren Daigle in brief
Lauren Ashley Daigle is an American contemporary Christian music singer and songwriter. Her debut album, How Can It Be, reached No. 1 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart and has been certified Platinum by the RIAA. Her third studio album, Look Up Child, was released in September 2018. She has won seven GMA Dove Awards, five Billboard Music Awards, two American Music Awards and has had four No. 1 singles on both the Billboard Christian Airplay and Hot Christian Songs chart. She tried out for American Idol in 2010 and 2012 after she was encouraged by her family to compete in the singing competition. She was cut just before the final 24 contestants in 2010, and she did not make it to Hollywood in 2011. She took a year off from school and did mission work in Brazil before attending Louisiana State University for Child and Family Studies. She says her diagnosis was one of the best things that had happened to her. She is currently on tour with Aaron Shust and Mikeschair with the Morning Rises Fall Tour.
Her music is influenced by zydeco, blues, and Cajun music in her environment. Her mother called her house ‘the music box’ because she was always singing. She did not consider music seriously until she was diagnosed with a debilitating illness. Her first single, \”Light of the World’, came from the 2013 album Christmas: Joy To The World, a collection of holiday songs from various Centricity artists. The single was briefly the most sold album in the US iTunes Store. After the release of the EP, CentricITY Music invited her to attend a workshop. This led to her singing on the Jason Gray single \”Nothing is Wasted\”. She made her debut on North Point InsideOut’s album, Hear, where she recorded \”Close\” and \”You Alone\” live at North Point Community Church in Alpharetta, Georgia. She later appeared on an EP for a local band called \”The Assemblie\” and the EP was briefly a most sold song in the U.S. iTunes store.
