Find her music on Bandcamp. “When an artist is selected, overproduced, air-brushed, homogenized, neutered, and packaged by children in marketing departments of corporations for the masses – as it is in dynasty America dreaming of Super Bowls – real talent, pure talent like that of Rachel Laitman goes largely unappreciated.

Ms. Laitman is of that caliber and I entreat you to listen.” –American Poet Gordon Massman
