Briar Circle

---

Boston-based and born out of friendship. In 2018 singer-songwriter Lauren Ginsburg teamed up with childhood friends (Kevin Garvin and Sean LaForce - founding members of metal/hardcore band On Broken Wings). Their unique style follows after piano-driven artists like Fiona Apple and Regina Spektor, and indie bands like The Strokes, Paramore, and Japanese Breakfast.  Together they’ve created a Retro/Rock sound, occasionally blending with the Indie Folk and Pop genres. Introspective lyrics provide an atmosphere of yearning at times while catchy instrumentation and rhythmic percussion offer an upbeat vibe. They are known for their completely self-produced recordings and dynamic performances.  

Since their debut EP Sundays (2019) they have been consistently releasing singles showcasing their evolving style and ability to create a sound that is both nostalgic and fresh. Their recent release “Biodegradable” is an uptempo acoustic guitar-driven track with quirky lyrics, encouraging listeners to overcome being stuck in a rut and to take life a little less seriously. Growing in popularity “Biodegradable” has reached over 100k streams on Spotify and ranked #7 on iTunes Sweden Rock Chart,  1 month after release.
