Claire Lynch at The Dream Cafe

CLAIRE LYNCH Wednesday, June 12th Doors 6pm Show 8pm Long recognized and praised as a creative force in acoustic music, CLAIRE LYNCH IS A PIONEER WHO CONTINUALLY PUSHES THE BOUNDARIES OF THE BLUEGRASS GENRE. Her career has been decorated with many accolades including three GRAMMY nominations, seven International Bluegrass Music Association awards and the prestigious United States Artists Walker Fellowship. Dolly Parton credits CLAIRE WITH "one of the sweetest, purest and best lead voices in the music business today." Her harmonies have graced the recordings of many stellar musicians. Equally gifted as a writer, her songs have been recorded by The Seldom Scene, Patty Loveless, Kathy Mattea, Cherryholmes, The Whites and others. Blazing her own trail in the mid 70's when there were few role models for young women in the genre, CLAIRE LYNCH MADE HISTORY WHEN SHE LED THE FRONT PORCH STRING BAND WHICH EVOLVED IN THE 80’s and 90’s into “one of the sharpest and most exciting post-modern bluegrass bands on the circuit.” She formed her own CLAIRE LYNCH BAND IN 2005 AND HAS SINCE CONSISTENTLY BEEN A TOP PICK OF PRESTIGIOUS PUBLICATIONS, critics and audiences across the U.S. and beyond. “Listening to CLAIRE LYNCH SING IS NOT SOMETHING TO BE UNDERTAKEN CASUALLY. Her songs and stage presence demand the listener’s rapt attention. She’s an intensely soulful singer, whose distinctive voice resonates with power and strength, yet retains an engaging innocence and crystalline purity. She’s also a songwriter of extraordinary ability who can bring listeners to their feet with her buoyant rhythms or to their knees with her sometimes almost unbearably poignant and insightful lyrics.” -Dave Higgs, WPLN Nashville Tickets: Premium $40 Wings $30 PLEASE CALL 250-490-9012 TO RESERVE YOUR TABLE
