Linq

Linq is an edgy, emotional, often political singer/songwriter. A serendipidous series of events has propelled her out of a career as a retail pharmacist and pharmacy owner onto an exciting musical path. Her songs are a unique blend of folk and rock, and she's uncompromising about expressing her music exactly as she's feeling it, even if genres get blurred in the process. She's not afraid to tackle controversial issues, and she uses the wisdom that she's gained through life experience to bring a strong, reasoned voice to whatever topic she's addressing. Examples include war, marriage equality, AIDS, religious-based homophobia, healthcare, and the importance of being true to yourself. Her top-notch studio musicians include June Millington, Julie Wolf, Jami Sieber, Allison Miller, Jean Millington, Loren Weisman, and Ruth Davies.

At an age when many look forward to retirement, Linq is kicking it up, cranking it out, and defying stereotypes. This singer-songwriter's music is fresh, uncompromising, decidedly un-stodgy, and lush with life experience. She's passionate about touching lives and making a difference in the world. One of the most striking things about her music is the amount of joy and enthusiasm she exudes in spite of her edgy tunes and topics.

Linq came of age in the 60's. Her music harkens to roots in the popular music of that time with its political folk, psychedelic rock, and social conscience. Harkens but doesn't duplicate. This is a woman who has found her groove: strongly vulnerable, irresistibly passionate, and dynamically humanistic.

Linq's first healthcare song, "Tired", (FAST MOVING DREAM 2006) has been awarded an Honorable Mention in the 2006 International Narrative Song Competition (INSC).
