Lynette Diaz is an American-born, New Zealand-based Singer-Songwriter. Lynette sings with a fiery voice that she attributes to her Mexican-American roots. “Music comes through me, it’s a passion, it’s heart-filled, it’s fun, it’s intense and it’s all rooted in my upbringing around a hodgepodge of various styles of music from 60’s and 70’s folk/country, contemporary music, independent singer-songwriter, even 80’s techno and traditional Mexican folklore music.
Lynette released her debut Cd, “Lyrics In My Head’ in late 2008. The song ‘Living Before Dying’ has received honorable mention in the Unisong International Songwriting Contest and Peacedriven Song Competition. Various songs from the Cd have received airplay in NZ, Australia and United States. Lynette returned to New Zealand in July 2009 having spent two months performing in the Seattle area of the United States.
Besides her own music, she is active in promoting other New Zealand female acoustic artists through the New Zealand Women's Acoustic Collective, which she founded in 2008 . The NZWAC celebrates a sense of community and collaboration amongst member female artists.
Lynette is also the radio host of "FemAcoustica Music and Review" , a monthly radio show on Plains FM 96.9 (Christchurch), featuring female acoustic artists, with an emphasis on New Zealand music.

Everyday is about living mindfully, creating, connecting, learning and Be'ing.
Music is a Vibration, a Healer, a Connector.
_______________
Released in September 2008, the 14-tracks on Lynette's debut CD, ‘Lyrics In My Head’ are a testament to a long journey of self-discovery, and resonates with the Universal pangs of heartbreak, loss, growth, new-found clarity, love and joy.
"My music is personal, but I believe the messages are Universal. Each song is heart-driven, by which I mean that I never pick up a guitar with the intention to write a certain way or a certain theme. The songs happen, no force of will. If it's not happening, then I know it's not meant to be written.
------------------
The creative, poetic, musical vibration is interrupted when Truth does not resonate. I lay it all out for you, Listener. You should expect no less. No holding back....Here's to the healing, resonating power of music! Keep Resonatin'! Lynette
