Lauren Hart To Perform at Philly Fights Cancer: Round 5
Tuesday, August 27, 2019
We are excited to officially announce that singer, songwriter and national recording artist Lauren Hart is joining our lineup for Philly Fights Cancer: Round 5. This Philadelphia Flyers performer is a treasured talent among the Philadelphia community and beyond.
Always known for her introspective lyrics and soaring vocals, Lauren’s songs have been heard on television series and soap operas including “Joan of Arcadia,” “Party of Five,” “All My Children” and “One Life to Live,” and her critically acclaimed National Anthem is featured in the Disney feature film “Miracle”. Lauren sings the National Anthem before every Philadelphia Flyers home game, a tribute to her late father, legendary National Hockey League Hall of Fame announcer Gene Hart, known for 30 years as “The Voice of the Flyers.”
She has performed at the Presidential Inauguration, where she shared the stage with Bill and Hillary Clinton, and on the French Riviera, where she lived for several years, performing with such artists as Stan Getz, the Gipsy Kings, Harry Belafonte and Frank Sinatra.
Lauren returned to the US and began her recording career when she was signed by Columbia Records in 1996 and later RedAnt/BMG.
In the U.S., she has appeared on the CBS Morning Show National, and opened for Fiona Apple, Tori Amos, Train and 10,000 Maniacs.
In addition to her music, Lauren has enjoyed a successful career in broadcast television, serving as co-host of Philadelphia’s NBC 10! Show, and appearing on the Comcast Sports Network covering the Flyers, and most recently hosted her own television show on the WMCN network called ALL HART.
Lauren has ventured into the world of documentary filmmaking by scoring Race to the Bottom of the Earth, chronicling her husband Todd Carmichael’s record-setting solo trek across Antarctica and the film Johnny and Jane come Marching Home, telling the story of our homeless veterans. In 2012 Lauren started work for DANGEROUS GROUNDS, a travelogue show for the Travel Channel. Lauren is the composer and makes on camera appearances as well.
Lauren’s passion for music is matched only by her passion for the charitable organizations she is committed to – MOMS DEMAND ACTION, EVERYTOWN, INTERNATIONAL JUSTICE MISSION, and the Gene Hart Memorial Fund where she helps oversee college scholarships and contributes to cancer research and patients.
Lauren is on the Board of Governors of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (Grammy Awards) and is the chapter's Vice President. She also sits on the board of the Philadelphia Orchestra, has been on advisory boards for both Pennsylvania Hospital and The Philadelphia Zoo, and is an honorary Board member of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Southern NJ. In 2007, Lauren was honored by the Society with its prestigious “Person of the Year” Award. She was named “Humanitarian of the Year” by the Friends of the American Cancer Society in 2010. In 2005 Lauren married Todd Carmichael, the founder of one of the premier coffee roasters in the country, La Colombe.
Todd and Lauren are proud parents of 4 children who were born in Ethiopia.
They have worked tirelessly on behalf of the children and families in Ethiopia and Uganda. Their love of Africa and the people helped shape their family and their entire future. They continue their work in the form of micro loans, family sponsorship, and education and farming.
