Laura Hugo is an Indigenous singer-songwriter from Teec Nos Pos, Arizona, located in the Navajo Nation. She moved to Minnesota in 2010 to pursue music and has since played all over the Twin Cities and around the Midwest. She uses her experiences with grief, mental health, and her general confusion about her place in the world to write honest, heart-wrenching, and relatable songs.
