Greetings from almost Sunny Wakefield. I write to you with Love & Inspiration in my heart. All we have is now. So why not make it good. Sometimes being on the road can hurt and tear and pull and strip you of all the good left in your goodbox. From a singer’s perspective, performing on stage and sharing stories through song fills up the empty box and keeps you going, keeps you thriving, keeps you singing, keeps you alive. On Sunday past, I had the pleasure of sharing the stage with two very talented Ladies, Lynne Hanson & Lynn Miles…Lynn Miles has been an inspiration to many song-writers along the way, and has travelled a very long and winding musical road. Thanks to all the Elle’s for a great show at The Black Sheep Inn, on the river in the Gatineau Hills. I am now in the process of writing new songs for a new album. I have a few ready, but am working daily to get some more out! Lyrics are the most challenging part of the song making for me. I just can’t seem to make things fit lyrically, what I want is to make a stellar song in all directions… but somehow the words get in the way!! Any suggestions out there? The melody of things just seems to come naturally, like I am standing under a musical vortex of sound… I guess all I really need is patience…In the meantime, please send a message or drop a line to say hello. It means a lot to know that someone out there reads these rambles of mine. My gig this weekend is sold out!! I am stoked, I have never played the venue or town of Burnstown before, so I must be doing something right!!! Lindsay xo
Lindsay Ferguson has a voice that evokes spine-tingling feeling, creative passion & powerful strength. She has been singing since the wee age of 2yrs & has been honing her craft ever since. Taking time to write soulful songs through travel & experience, from Ontario to Newfoundland, Switzerland to Bermuda, Ireland to California, Lindsay sings & performs like she means it with a drive that will take her to the stars. Her true Love -music- takes her everywhere (as long as the van doesn't break down...) She has finished recording her debut full length album "sound." with Dave Draves of Little Bullhorn Studios in Ottawa (Kathleen Edwards, Jim Bryson, Howe Gelb.) Her CD Release party at The Black Sheep Inn, Wakefield Quebec, had record attendance, beating out Arcade Fire no less!! She has performed & played festivals of all sorts, including the Ottawa Blues Festival, one of the biggest in North America. Showcased on CBC's "Bandwidth" & "Definitely Not the Opera", Lindsay's music is finally being heard across Canada. Sometimes she is a solo singer with a guitar a "Songstress Extra-Ordinaire & sometimes she rocks & funks it out with her band "Lindsay Live". Listen up for this killer voice, she is in the process of kicking butt & will kick yours, as soon as you are ready.
