Laura-Jayne Hunter

Laura-Jayne Hunter trained in voice and performing arts at Manchester's Capitol Theatre where she also started her career in live music. Laura-Jayne gained a brief but interesting taste of fame with original indie-pop outfit Mia, and then ventured into other styles and genres of music in joining rock and soul covers band The Sun Band. A few years on, Laura-Jayne decided to go it alone and step into the world of disco and funk music, before then developing Indie Lounge and Le Lounge. Laura-Jayne offers a range of different performances from solo or duo acoustic, to solo upbeat as well as now moonlighting as a guest lead vocalist with LeFunk!, a funk and soul covers band. Her versatile vocals have led to many varied bookings throughout her career at venues including Peckforton Castle, Band on the Wall, Manchester's Orangery, the Free Trade Hall, and Manchester's Comedy Store (as a singer, not comedian!), along with countless festivals (Blackthorn Music Festival and Wahay Fest) and function rooms at hotels up and down the country. Artists covered include Amy Winehouse, Sister Sledge, Chic, Jess Glynne, Adele, The Bangles, Diana Ross, Florence and the Machine and more. Laura is a fun, bubbly performer when it comes to upbeat party events and will engage with the audience to make them feel part of the party! For acoustic or background performances, Laura is sensitive to volume levels and always able to provide the perfect audio backdrop for a wedding or drinks reception.
