BIO Neo-Traditional Hybrid-Original
Linda Lavender played in the graffiti sprayed back alleys and bars of Toronto and has now moved playing her songs among the lofty peaks of Vanvouver Island. Kenny (Lefty) Brault arrived from Alberta 40 years ago and is stuck in the urban rut that bass players flourish in, referred to as the groove.
At a perchance meeting at a songwriters circle, a spark was ignited and that became the electricity of Lavender & Lefty.
After One Year In, their first album, released, this duo has been taking the island by storm. A must-see!
