BIO

Multi-Grammy® & Emmy® winner Laura Dickinson is perhaps best known for her extensive work on Phineas and Ferb, in addition to being a sought after music producer, contractor, arranger, and voice actor with clients including Cartoon Network, HBO Max, Netflix, Amazon Studios, Riot Games, Dreamworks Animation, Michael Bublé, Dolly Parton, and Disney Television Animation.



Laura has worked full time in the entertainment industry for the last two decades; her first recording session was at age seven. She often notes that SAG-AFTRA vocalists and AFM instrumentalists are frequently forgotten about in post-production without screen credit, and that 90% of people in the industry do not know what a music contractor – a vocal contractor or instrumental contractor – actually is. Music contractors have similar relationships to stunt coordinators, in that SAG-AFTRA singers and AFM players generally do not have agents and mainly book through contractors who serve extensively as music casting directors.

Laura split her time pre-pandemic between New York and her native Los Angeles, now working from her home studio in Rowland Heights, California down the street from the infamous Twin Pines Mall. She serves on numerous SAG-AFTRA committees and on the Board of Directors for the American Society of Music Arrangers and Composers. https://asmac.org

As of October 2021, Laura is working as lead composer on an upcoming animated television series and independent short film, in addition to multiple projects in development as a writer. She also musical directs her own big band, Laura Dickinson 17, which has released two albums showcasing her talent as a producer. Find them on your favorite music platform.

BWW Review: D. Scott Eads Brings LEGACY IN THE KEY OF BING to Sterling's

Legacy in the Key of Bing can only mean the affable, buoyant Bing Crosby who swooned millions of people on the radio with only his voice. D.

Review: JOSEPH Proves to be Musical of Biblical Proportions Performed in Fabulous Broadway Style by 5-STAR THEATRICALS

Thanks to the magnificent performance of handsome and muscular Adam Hollick, there is an overwhelming Spiritual Presence that shines within Joseph, a power that allows him to overcome every obstacle in his way. He rises above being separated from his loved ones, sold to nomads traveling through the harsh desert, being thrown into a pit, sent to prison, and then elevated by a hard-rocking Elvis-impersonator Pharaoh (Patrick Cassidy living it up to the hilt in blue suede shoes and sequins) to a position of respect and authority after one of his visions proves to save the people of Egypt.
