Linda Donovan Olson

Linda discovered a passion for music at the tender age of 4, when she began piano lessons. Over the years she learned to play the organ, accordian, clarinet, guitar, trumpet, drums...any instrument she could get her hands on. When she was 19 she began writing songs and has continued to do so ever since. Her strongest influence was Barbra Streisand. Although Linda is not a singer by trade, she was taken by Ms. Streisand's vocal style and choice of songs. Without question, Ms. Streisand was the most powerful influence on Linda's style of writing. Linda's songs reflect her own life experiences and are deeply passionate.
