It is more than 25 years since God’s Boyfriend rocked up at T in the Park’s new talent stage and stole the show 🎸
IT IS more than 25 years since God’s Boyfriend - a bunch of fiercely talented, fearless teenagers from East Kilbride – rocked up at T in the Park’s new talent“It feels like a very long time ago,” she says, smiling. “I was so young. We did T in the Park, which just blew my mind, and toured to Denmark as part of this twin-town thing East Kilbride had with Ballerup. I was 16 and I hadn’t even been on a plane before.
There have been ups and downs in Laura’s life since then. Success with God’s Boyfriend led to even more with folktronica outfit Laki Mera, hailed by the music press as “a fusion of pastoral pleasures and latterday Portishead” and “folk roots, but happy on the dance floor”.Founders Laura and producer and multi-instrumentalist Andrea Gobbi then split up after a nine-year relationship, although they remain friends .
“I have had a string of relationships since I was 15, and I have always rushed to fall in love,” she says.She adds, with a smile: “Life is about what I like and what I need, and it feels good.”“It’s about as pop-py as I get,” she laughs. “I did everything in my home studio – writing, recording, producing, mixing, even the videos and the artwork…“I was always drawn to music though, even before I was in God’s Boyfriend,” she adds. “I used to daydream about being on stage.
