Lynn Hollyfield

Singer-Songwriter

Indie folk pop with a little bit of jazz and blues

Lynn Hollyfield is an award-winning Singer-Songwriter who started playing guitar at age 10 and wrote her first song in High School. She’s been performing ever since. Her songs are written in a contemporary folk style but she often slips in jazz chords, or some bluesy guitar chops to support her warm, passionate vocals. Think Mary Chapin Carpenter meets Bonnie Raitt, playing a classic Gershwin tune, with a down home feel.

“You have such a peaceful, beautiful presence and the songs and tunes to match.”
Lea Morris, Singer-Songwriter

“Sweet Tea” by Lynn Hollyfield

What People Are Saying…

 “Just wanted to pop in and let you know how much I am appreciating your new CD (Look Up). It has been my ‘go to’ music, (it’s) especially uplifting and comforting when I am in a slight funk. Thank you for making music!”

“I saw you at Takoma Park and absolutely loved your music. I was excited to learn that you are playing 2 blocks from my house on October 19. So I decided I’d better keep informed about all of your gigs.Can’t wait to hear you again!

You were amazing! I hadn’t seen you with a full band. it was so nice. And I was back at the march table and several people stopped in their tracks and asked me your name. (Takoma Park Folk Festival-TPFF)

When you did the lullaby for Liam and you’d sing “rocking/rock” him , that note and tone of your voice went through me like a tuning fork was resonating inside me every single time! So, so beautiful! Wow!

Kate Buckholdt Penbleeds

Writer, Performing Poet

I confess I did not know your work until then (Takoma Park Folk Festival 2024), fell in love with your music and your voice : )

Hollyfield’s indie-folk-pop style could have her opening up for 10,000 Maniacs or Cowboy Junkies.
