"I've been listening to your beautiful music."
Erin Radio, CHES 101.5FM, Steve Clarke, Acoustic Planet
"What a terrific album you've created with "Layers". It's my pick of the month here on
Acoustic Planet and I'm sure it will quickly become a fave with the audience. This is
an album that starts with a voice that wraps itself around you like a blanket, is held
together with crystal clear recording and followed up with incisive lyrics and superior
instrumentation. This one's a winner! Congratulations and thanks for sharing the music."
John Rumsey, WKVR, 89.3FM, Four Strong Winds
"Every year a new artist comes along and captures my heart. Washington DC artist,
Lynn Hollyfield, in her first solo, full length release, is this years discovery.
She has a voice so warm and lovely it makes you want to run out and buy concert
tickets.Grace Griffith provides marvelous harmony vocals on many tracks. Adding to Lynn's
fine guitar work are a wealth of talented musicians who provide layers of instrumental
support. A worthy first effort bound for my top 5 of 2010."
Maryland Independent, Dickson Mercer
‘Layers’ of Sound Power New CD from Local Folk Singer Hollyfield’.
Through "Layers," Hollyfield presents a pensive, roots-driven collection of originals and two covers

tracks features the artist's angelic voice and fluid guitar picking.’

“Your music is the golden thread - your voice sews your audience to you - I feel
simple and free and soft and calm and beautiful and grateful when I hear you sing.

each one of us became what you sewed with the strings of your guitar.
There is such a gentleness about you and your voice - it's magical.”
