Everything you need to know about Laura-Mary Carter's debut solo mini-album, 'Town Called Nothing'

Blood Red Shoes’ Laura-Mary Carter has finally decided to take the limelight under her own name, delivering debut solo mini-album ‘Town Called Nothing’. We asked her to tell us everything we needed to know about it.

I wrote and recorded this record all over the place because I can never really stay in one place at a time.

The title-track, 'Town Called Nothing', was the first song I wrote one evening in Los Angeles. I was subletting a friend's studio for a while, and there was this beaten-up guitar in the corner where the strings were so far off the fret I could only play really standard chords, which is not really my style. The song just kinda happened, a bit like it came from the universe and wrote itself. It has this Americana feel, and I was singing differently, then the words just came out: "A town called Nothing". After I finished the song, I Googled "Nothing" just in case there was a place, and right there, I saw Nothing Arizona! I immediately went, and all that's there is a rickety old sign and some rundown buildings. I camped out there a few times to try to find the two people who are allegedly living there, but I have yet to meet them.
