She began performing “around the house” and “in church,” per her answers in recent interviews.

Laci spent several years apart from her musical talented father.  That ended when she was 15 years old and joined her father (Texas Country music artist Jody Booth) to record and play live performances with him in Arkansas.   “We really shared our music interests, that’s what started us getting closer again,” Laci recalls. “Music really made up for that lost time and it means the world to me because I couldn’t ask for a better family or a better support system.”
