LAUREN HARRIS Interviewed At U.K.'s DOWNLOAD Festival; Video Available

June 15, 2009

Lauren Harris — singer and daughter of legendary architect and bassist of IRON MAIDEN, Steve Harris — and her backing band were interviewed at the Download festival, which was held June 12-14 at Donington Park, United Kingdom. Watch the chat below.

Harris took part in a "revealing" photo session and interview with the U.K. edition of the FHM magazine. Check it out at FHM.com. Larger scans can be found at Female Cele.

Lauren Harris released her new single, "Your Turn", worldwide on January 1 at one second past midnight as the first "official" release of 2009.

This groundbreaking event, in conjunction with worldwide music distribution giants, The Orchard was the brainchild of Quite Great Communications' marketing team, Redlands, and was the first of its type.

"Your Turn" is taken from Lauren's critically acclaimed debut album "Calm Before The Storm", which features performances from her father on a number of tracks — the first time he has played on anything besides a MAIDEN track, ever!

Lauren's catchy power-pop songs draw comparisons to American acts such as the DONNAS and PARAMORE as well as more mainstream artists such as AVRIL LAVIGNE and PINK but with a distinctly British attitude and sound.
