 LONDON, UK (Top40 Charts/ DEMOLITION RECORDS) - Demolition/DR2 Records' artist, Lauren Harris' debut album - Calm Before the Storm hit stores nationwide this week as she continues to captivate audiences in support on the extensive Iron Maiden world tour (including her first visits to Australia and South America) and now the United States! The 12-track hard-rocking opus, which features catchy up-tempo songs such as "Steal Your Fire" and "Get Over It," was produced by Tommy McWilliams (Gloria Estefan, Jon Secada,) and mixed by Kevin Shirley (Iron Maiden, Aerosmith, Journey). Harris was discovered by legendary British producer-writer-artist Russ Ballard who had no idea she was the daughter of Iron Maiden leader/founding member, Steve Harris. Following the successful studio session with Russ, Lauren assembled a live band and headed out on the road. Already having toured with rock heavyweights such as HEAVEN AND HELL, KORN, THE ANSWER , WITHIN TEMPTATION, and STONE SOUR, including a dazzling set at the U.K. Download Festival already under her belt, Lauren along with her all-star band featuring Richie Faulkner - Guitar, Randy Gregg - Bass and Tom McWilliams - Drums is no stranger to the big stage. "I'm really excited for everybody to hear my debut album," says Harris. "This is my first North American tour and I'm having a fantastic time!"
