A World Premiere!
What do you do when your heart is broken? When your world seems to be falling apart, one frustration at a time? Grab a guitar, hitch up your jeans, and sing about it! From the star of HBO’s Looking and The People’s Republic of Portland at The Armory, Lauren Weedman (and her alter ego Tami Lisa) are ready to take you on a journey of heartbreak, laughter and fresh starts. Lauren will be joined by a band of fine musicians; and we’re pretty sure her hair will be bigger than ever.

Reviews of "Lauren Weedman Doesn't Live Here Anymore"

"Her fearlessness and imagination are a marvel all their own—a fun-to-watch firecracker. She’s frank. She’s wry. And her pace is spry. She picks up an idea, and as soon as you know where she’s going with it, she drops it like a hot potato."

Female Empowerment in Country Music

Lauren Weedman uses country music to explore heartbreak and love in Lauren Weedman Doesn't Live Here Anymore, but gone are the days when country wives are expected to stand by their man. The message from women in country music today is cohesive and repetitive: we are here and we are not going anywhere.
