New Album Coming Soon

Raw. Honest. Hauntingly Beautiful.
Get ready for a sonic journey through the fragile, fierce, and deeply human.

Music isn’t just something I do, it’s the Language of my being

"I could learn for a thousand lifetimes and only begin to know how much I really don’t know… and isn’t that wonderful?"

Laura Targett is a musician, songwriter, and artist who weaves an extraordinary tapestry of sound and emotion.

Her music crosses genres, blending Celtic traditions, world influences, and years of classical training. Whether she's composing intimate melodies or electrifying live stages, Laura’s passion and authenticity shine through.

Through her music, Laura captures raw emotion and celebrates the beauty of humanity, one note at a time.

"Music and art are threads woven through the tapestry of my days, keeping me sane, reminding me of who I am."

Take a Listen

Fragile is a collection of songs shaped by the raw, tender edges of life, woven together in the in-between moments, when the world is quiet and the heart speaks loudest.

Each melody is a thread from Laura’s journey: sometimes wild, sometimes delicate, always real. From whispered reflections to soaring fiddle lines, this album holds space for both the light and the shadow.

Laura Targett Live

Watch Laura and her band light up the stage in this high-energy live performance, where folk roots meet fiery self expression and musical chemistry. Their seamless collaboration bursts with energy, showcasing breathtaking talent and passion.

This is music played with heart and soul, alive, real, and impossible to ignore.
