Harris isn’t the only one singing Lynch’s praises: on Sept. 30 Lynch was named the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Female Vocalist of the Year at the 2010 IBMA awards show.
You can hear the voice of this angel at the Firehouse Center for the Arts, Saturday, Oct. 9, at 8 p.m.
Lynch will appear with her band, consisting of Mark Schatz, Jason Thomas and Matt Wingate - a spectacular combination of fine musicians who knock-out audiences wherever they go. Her shows are characteristically filled with powerful songs, extraordinary vocals, and top-of-the-line musicianship so it’s no wonder the fan base is wide and growing. They will perform songs from the latest CD “Whatcha Gonna Do” as well as other favorites.
The Atlanta Journal Constitution tagged Lynch “the perfect mix of that famed trio Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris and Dolly Parton. She’s got the interpretive skills of Ronstadt, the clear and pure voice of Harris and the bluegrass soul of Parton.” To hear Lynch with her band, live or recorded, is to experience bluegrass, folk, swing and country adroitly mixed with charm, mastery, and signature innovation.
Growing up in the New York town of Kingston, Lynch that music came naturally. “My mother liked show tunes. My family was involved in church; it was a big part of our lives. And so there was church music. I had two sisters who also sang – we all sang, around the table at dinner or in the car...anywhere.” She jokes that her family had “a song for every occasion.” Complete story in The Neuburyport Current
