Featured in the Financial Times, breaking the Jazz Charts Top 5, and the Year End Jazz Week Top 30, Henderson's eclectic vocal influences spread across genres producing a distinct yet versatile sound. Her original music is featured in Sky Rojo (Netflix), The Drowning (Netflix), El Juego de Las Llaves (Amazon), and Romeo y Julieta (starring Lupita Nyong’o), scored by one of Lauren’s musical collaborators, Michael Thurber.
Henderson uncovers the layers of her diverse background in English and Spanish. Her compositions paint stories reflecting journeys imposed through the African Diaspora in connection to her Panamanian, Montserratian, and vast Caribbean roots as they interplay with her North American upbringing. Jazz, Latin Jazz, Flamenco, R&B and Soul roots aid in an exploration of culture, society, race, love, and the complexities encountered as we navigate life's obstacles.
