Singer-Songwriter Lynn Drury Celebrates 20 Years with NOLAmericana Songwriter Series

Loa, International House Hotel’s bar, presents, “Lynn Drury Celebrates 20 Years of Making Music in New Orleans.” Set to inviting velvets and the flickering glow of candlelight, Drury’s NOLAmericana songwriter series happens weekly in Loa, beginning January 16th.

In recent years, Loa has hosted Echoes From Laurel Canyon, an acoustic series and tribute to that fabled bohemian enclave and its era-defining songwriters who fueled the fertile California music scene and made famous some of the most well-known musicians and songwriters of the 1960’s and 70’s.

In that spirit, the exceptionally creative climate of New Orleans today has conjured a burgeoning roster of newcomers and veteran troubadours playing off each other’s licks and lyrics in our own bohemian port town. And, with 20 years and 8 albums under her belt, Lynn invites some of her gifted friends and fellow songsmiths to the party at Loa, Wednesday nights, 6 -8 PM.

Special guests already include:

Jan 16 - Shawn Williams
Jan 23 - Arséne Delay
Jan 30 - Jamey St. Pierre & Alex Mallet
Feb 06 - Susan Cowsill
Feb 13 - Carolyn Broussard  
Feb 20 - Ted Hefko
Feb 27 - Mia Borders

Come hear the songs and stories of New Orleans’ best songwriters and players, united and unfiltered!. Free and open to the public, the thirsty can refresh themselves with those famed elixirs offered by Alan Walter and his staff.

Lookout in February!!  NCIS New Orleans is featuring me and Chris Pylant doing one of my original songs "Can't Hold On" - We are making an appearance and playing live on Episode 109.  Congrats to the cast and crew for surpassing the "100 episode" mark.  Everyone on set was a joy to work with and the song came out amazing!!!

I had a blast with the band opening for Anders Osborne at Tipitina's Dec 14th for his annual Christmas show.  Here I am with music lovers Ted Danson & Mary Steenburgen.  What a great couple!  

Hey folks, I wanted to share a recent interview by Tom Wright, he is currently interviewing local musicians in a podcast format, sharing music and getting commentary on all things New Orleans.

Playing on my birthday again! What!?  One day I'll learn, but really I am looking forward to playing with the Fellas..  Chris Pylant, Rene Coman, & Alex Mallet, with many special guests, Jamie St. Pierre & Ted Hefko!  Elton Foster will have the food covered, there's no telling what he will drum up, but I can guarantee it will be tasty.  Much like the music.

Hey hey!  Lookout New Orleans, the dynamic duo of Chris Pyant (drummer/vocalist) and Lynn is back Friday Sept 28th!  Come catch them before Lynn heads to Bogata, Columbia in a few days!  Kerry Irish Pub is located at 331 Decatur Street. NOLA.  Show starts around 9pm.

Hey everyone,  I've been working tirelessly to get this new site up and running!  I hope you like it. I'm just sure it will make my life easier, if I can find out where i put that uh.. well, luckily I don't have to do this alone.  Recently, I recorded a few tunes solo with Mia Borders and those will be up soon!  I can't wait to share the stripped-down versions with you.  In fact, I think one is just perfect the way it is, and I may not even record the full length version.  All these will be up on Soundcloud soon!  In the meantime, you can catch me at Sidebar Nola Friday Sept 14th, 9pm.  I'll have some special guests rolling through, so It's bound to be fun!
