I first heard her while driving in the wilds of Minnesota with my pal The Skipper. She was on the radio of our rental car as we wheeled our way to the 40th reunion of the Spencer, Iowa high school class of '66. The song was, "That's What I Like About the North" and it was funny with a kickass funky attitude. The Skipper and I looked at each other and said, "Who is this? She's great!"
Now, nearly two years later, she has been a guest on the internet radio show I co-host with Clark Anthony at SignOnradio.com and she is just as nice as she is talented. Her music is a wonderful combination of old-fashioned Polka, rock n' roll, zydeco and country. It's so flat out HAPPY that it makes your feet move in spite of yourself.
Lynn and her musical partner and arranger, guitarist Charlie Kelley, are making magic in Nashville these days and I'm betting you'll be hearing more about her real soon.Right now, LynnMarie , Charlie and "The Boxhounds" are working on a new album with vocal greats like Dobie Grey and Hal Ketchum. If it's even close to her "Party Dress" CD, it will make you want to move in with it. Check out cuts like: Squeeze Box, Stuck in the Middle with You, and Happy Feet on "Party Dress" and you'll see what I mean.

She'll put a smile on your face!
Full disclosure: Lynn did give Clark and me free coffee mugs. (Hey, we were disc jockeys. It's expected!)
