I currently share musical programs in over 80 facilities in and around the Capital region and Vermont. I work with residents of all degrees of ability and cognition, from the highly independent to those profoundly afflicted. I can tailor programs for specific needs. My genres include (but are not limited to):

Standards/Oldies (20s-90s)
Classic Country
Folk
50S Rock n Roll
Woodstock/60s
Broadway (Show tunes, Cinema Music)
Holiday/Seasonal Programs

I accompany myself on either piano/keyboards or guitar.

Bookings are closed for 2026. Please contact me if you'd like to be on the waitlist.

Your residents deserve the best entertainment in the comfort of their homes.

“Laura Melanie Collins is, hands down, my favorite entertainer we have perform here at The Massry Residence. My residents also love her. She never disappoints, is always prepared, and if she doesn’t know a requested song she will by the next time she comes!”

— Christine V., Director of Activities

“Thank you -- As always, we had a ball. The residents and staff thoroughly enjoy you and your beautiful voice. What a Blessing!”

— Maureen M., Recreational Director

“I never miss Laura's performance each month."

— Mary S., Nursing home resident.
