Goldpine returns, the duo has reimagined their “southern-soul,” “curious-grit” and emotionally honest lyrics. Now out with their new album, ‘Two’ Goldpine wastes no time showing what they stand for. Their lead single, “Do You Have Me,” showcases Kassie’s powerhouse of a voice. Starting out slow, the song cycles through a pattern of harmonious verses and a commanding chorus, ultimately building to an instrumental interlude of southern electric guitars and a rhythmic tambourine.
This soulful rocker has had a passion for singing throughout her entire life. Her influences were widely varied from artists such as Susan Tedeschi, Bonnie Raitt, The Pointer Sisters, Eva Cassidy, Etta James, Joss Stone, Jason Mraz, Black Eyed Peas, Christina Aguilera, and many more.

“With one foot planted in the territory of her influences and the other pointed in an unexplored direction, she straddles the border between blues, soul, and guitar-driven rock & roll, finding her own sound somewhere in the middle.” ~ Glide Magazine
“Lauren is a blues belter with finesse and rock power, drafting soul elements when it suits her on songs like Cake.” ~ Gonzookanagan
