talents to local bands, like Bon Voyager on the Cape Cod doing

Linda's
singing covers many of the great singer/songwriters of the 90's
and today, in addition to country and oldies. Her ability to

with various singing styles. Linda's singing and playing of
music is a passion in which she continues to build and prosper
