Some call it country, some call it roots-and-blues, and others call it rough-around- the-edges folk. Lynne Hanson calls her musical style by her own name: "porch music with a little Texas red dirt."

What some people are saying about Lynne ...
Ontario Arts Council jury “Lynne’s songs have a beautiful, haunting feeling, into which you can sink and be enveloped.”
Uncut 4/5**** "Killer third by Canadian songbird...more in common with the assured touch
of Gillian Welch or Lucinda Williams. "Riptide" could easily be the best song Welch has yet
to write."
Maverick Magazine "Canadian country music at its best!"
Americana UK "Hanson sings with a rich smooth voice that lends it to story telling and with lyrics that tell of real life situations. Hanson is a bright prospect."
Get Ready To Rock “This is the sort of finger picking folk/country/Americana meld that's
likely to feature highly on the playlists of the Bob Harris Country show."
Music Maker Magazine "A smoldering mix of frayed Americana, where a fusion of folk, country & blues give musical voice to her poetic & passionate songs."
Acoustic Magazine "Lynne has both the voice and the ear for a memorable chorus to make a
significant mark."
Folk and Acoustic Music Exchange "Hanson's latest displays great growth across the entire artistic spectrum, revealing a singer/songwriter not merely following trends but creating pure, clean roots music while subsequently finding her voice and charting her ascending path."
Ctrlaltcountry.be "There is no description other than “just brilliant” possible here. The revelation of two years ago proves itself once again – summa cum laude, in our opinion!"
MuziekNu.nl "Simply brilliant!"
