Title: Vocal Teacher

Bio: Laura Warren Barge has been a professional musician for over 30 years. After learning the classics at Springfield College of Illinois, she traveled to Boston, MA to finish her degree at Berklee College of Music in the late 1980’s. While attending Berklee she fell in love with the more contemporary forms of music. Contemporary Country/Pop/Folk, Jazz Standards and Rhythm & Blues are her favorites, but she loves most forms of modern Americana music. After touring with various bands around the country like ‘Black and Blue’, ‘Cruzin’, ‘Legacy’, ‘After Hours’ and ‘X-Factor’ for over a decade, she now resides in North KC where she performs for different venues, privately teaches, and is the administrator for Corbin Theatre Company in Liberty, MO. Ms Barge is a proud member of NATS - National Association of Teachers of Singing, Inc. Laura was nominated for Best KC Jazz Vocalist of the year for 2021 and 2022 through KC Jazz Ambassadors (JAM Magazine). In 2022 I was featured in an article for VoyageKC Magazine and in 2023 I was featured in Bold Journey Magazine
