Who Is Lara Herscovitch?
Lara Herscovitch is singer-songwriter-poet-performer gem. As described in The Boston Globe, she brings “a luminous voice and a buoyant stage presence… big-hearted lyrics embrace the sum of life… Herscovitch’s music blows on the embers of a lagging spirit or a dormant creative life.” She leads with authenticity, integrity, humor and heart.
The wisdom in Lara’s artistry comes from her decades of humanitarian work, focused on education, community development, environmental protection, and justice system reform. The depth of this experience resonates throughout her music; as Acoustic Live in New York City described, “She possesses not only a huge reservoir of musical talent and a voice with a bell-like clarity, but a keen sense of global concern and a fierce intellect... It might seem too good to be true, but true it is.”
Lara tours and performs across the U.S., playing solo and with her backing band the Highway Philosophers. She is a regular guest speaker, keynote presenter and workshop facilitator. She holds a BA in Political Science from the University of Massachusetts and a policy MSW from the University of Connecticut. She grew up in the Northeast U.S. and lives in Connecticut.
