"Lindsay Jane Canadian Surprise!"

"...a clear, sleepy, lights low voice sitting on top of the soft shoe shuffle of a jazz guitar that means, grab your girl, get some really good wine, and turn out the lights. Canada, once again, sends me a pleasant experience." - Stave Magazine


"What Mitch Podolak Has To Say.."

"Lindsay Jane is that rare artist that comes along from god knows where and blows away everybody she encounters. She is a writer of great depth with the ability to get right at the heart of things with an insightful mind that examines truth and presents it in a simple and most poignant manner. Lindsay Jane's songs move people, there is no way anybody can be indifferent. This isn't background music; her songs hit the target dead on the money." -Mitch Poldolak Founder of the Winnipeg & Vancouver Folk Festivals as well as the Stan Rogers Festival

- Mitch Podolak


""LOvers Find Reasons" review"

With a voice as miraculously expansive and expressive as the one possessed by Winnipeg-based songwriter Lindsay Jane, the temptation is to constantly showboat its flexibility and strength. To her credit, Jane disciplines her instrument, nestling it cozily into the rootsy Django-ish rags and prairie-folk on her sophomore solo effort. The music is impeccably crafted and recorded, if a little toothlessly populist, with Jane’s multi-instrumental sweep textured by guests drawn from her hometown’s vintage Canadiana crowd, including the Duhks’ fiddler Tanya Elizabeth, Nathan’s Keri Latimer (whose exquisite vocals contrast with Jane’s earthier timbre on the duet “I Am No Dancer”) and the D Rangers’ Jaxon Haldane (as co-producer). A solid album from a capable artist who could easily venture into the mainstream or take a more alternate route—the choice is Jane’s, as she could easily conquer either. - Mary Christa O’Keefe - The Vue Weekly (Edmonton)


""Starting Today" - CD review"

Starting Today is a promising debut, on which Jane reveals a talent for crafting disarmingly simple and pretty melodies. Dear Abby is an example of Jane at her best, with a soft strumming quality and a sparseness reminiscent of I Will from the Beatles' White Album. - Heath McCoy, Calgary Herald

Bio

At the tender age of 10, Lindsay stumbled upon her first beer stained radio, smuggled it into her Christian home, (where listening to popular music was forbidden) and with the smell of beer under her pillow, Berlins' "Take my Breath Away" literally did that to Lindsay and her life has never the same since.

Lindsay Jane grew up listening to Ella Fitzgerald, The Beatles, Frank Sinatra and as well as a number of Broadway Musical soundtracks including "les miserables", "Joseph and the amazing Technicolor dream coat!" and numerous Rogers and Hammerstein songs.

Lindsay Jane has a developed a large and fantastic following in Canada and is just starting to break into the US.
Lindsay Jane now performs at major folk festivals, concert halls, folk clubs and churches all over the place.
