Multi-award winning Rounder recording artist Lynn Morris is
one of only a handful of female band leaders in bluegrass
today. Since founding the group in Winchester, Virginia in
1988, Lynn and her husband, bassist Marshall Wilborn have
earned international acclaim for their straightforward
soulful singing, genuine warmth onstage, and one of the
hottest bands in the business. The band's overall approach
sparkles with directness and simplicity, reflecting the
unmistakable influence of bluegrass legends Lester Flatt and
Earl Scruggs, The Stanley Brothers and Hazel Dickens. Still,
their sound remains completely original while capturing the
drive and passion of real country music. Their repertoire
includes the work of both traditional and contemporary
songsmiths, but the real standout attraction is the group's
own original material and terrific chemistry onstage.
Together, this foursome captures what every musical group
aspires to - that indescribable magic/synergy that only
happens for the luckiest few. Hard-driving as it gets, with
both masculine and feminine sensibilities up front all
night long, performing rootsy favorites and brand new
originals, the Lynn Morris Band is one of the most
inspired, gifted and entertaining groups in any style of
music.
