Known by some of the top entertainers in the world she has been a featured voice on countless projects and stage shows.Growing up, Lori started singing at an early age with her three sisters whose grandfather called upon their whole family to comprise the entire choir for his small church. Eventually the stage became home for the sisters and the group Perri was formed; their talents became regularly sought after by artists like Anita Baker, George Duke, Pat Metheny, Cher, Roberta Flack, Sting, George Michael and Seal to name a few.Even though her love for the stage continued to grow, Lori realized that something was missing in her life.

"My testimony is actually one that encompasses the testimonies of many others. I feel compelled to be the voice for many individuals who don’t get the opportunity to put a microphone in their hand and reach thousands of people at one time. I want to tell their stories for them as well as walk you through my spiritual journey." Songs like "No Longer Run" depict Lori’s testimony as she proclaims her new relationship with her music and begins to minister to herself. Another smash song impacting radio "I Found It In You" moves a step farther in her journey giving praise to the Father above for the changes she has made in her life.Not knowing where the Lord would lead her after she finished her solo release she, patiently waited until the doors were opened to her ideas and music.
