Laura Furmanova was born in Rostov-on-the-Don on a quiet winter evening. She loved listening to lullabies and other songs and started singing as a little child. When Laura turned eleven, she joined the children’s choir in one of the so-called “Palaces of Culture”. Laura’s talent and her love for music soon made her the choir’s best soloist.
In upper school she sang in a school band – in a „vocal-musical ensemble“, as the Soviet lingo put it. She knew that she wanted to be a singer, and so she decided to study music. This was not easy as she did not have a music school diploma. But following her dream, she managed to catch up with those who did in only half a year: theory, sol-fa (ear training), piano – she did it all. In 1994 Laura became a student of the Rostov Arts Academy. After receiving a degree in choir conducting, she moved to Germany where she went on studying music.
In Berlin, she enjoyed intensive voice training and became what she always wanted to be – a professional singer, mastering her voice as well as any international star. In 2003 and 2004 she was a special guest of the children’s music competition „Berliner Perle“ in Berlin; in 2004 she became the laureate of the popular Hamburg competition „Pop&Rock“. In 2005 she was placed first in the international musical competition for young singers “The World Meets in Europe” in Prague. In 2006, she became a laureate of the popular musical competition “New Wave”.
Recently, Laura started cooperating with several bands and musicians, e.g.: “Georg Jackson Show Band”, “Gala Band Sculer”, “The Voices”, “Let’s Dance”. The gifted young singer, composer and producer Brandon Stone is a close associate. Laura’s concert tours took her all over the World, Western and Eastern Europe: in Zurich, Nice, Monte Carlo, Milan, Paris, Dusseldorf, Cologne, Dortmund, Frankfurt / Main, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kiev, Dubai.
