Lindsey

Tuesday evening, UMaine students were treated to the sultry, soulful sounds of Lindsey Bachelder, a local singer-songwriter. Bachelder was the latest talent to perform as part of the Campus Activities Board's Java Jive series.

A steady crowd of about fifty people attended the two-hour event, which was divided into two one-hour sets. Bachelder, accompanied by her keyboard and both acoustic and bass guitars, wooed the crowd with her husky voice, reminiscent of Alica Keys - sexy and sintilating.

"I would call the show a definite success," said Java Jive organizer and planner Sean Walsh. "She has a professional air about her. Aside from being very talented, she's also very personable and easy to work with."

Her voice, coupled with a mix of original material and covers, provided the crowd with an ample demonstration of Bachelder's vocal talents.

"We are looking into the possibility of bringing Lindsey back here in the future sometime. She was a delight to work with and the crowd seemed to enjoy her performance," said Walsh.
