"From time to time an artist comes to your attention and startles you. When 19-year old singer/songwriter Lindsey Mae came to my attention I was immediately blown away by her maturity. It's the maturity in her songwriting and in her voice that is remarkable. Her debut EP is a collection of songs so refined in writing and performance that you would expect to hear it from an artist on her third or fourth record. The EP, produced by Hal Cragin (A Fine Frenzy, Iggy Pop), emphasizes Mae's songwriting as well as her deep, souful vocals." T.O. Snobs Music 9/13/09
"Lindsey Mae, an 19 year old girl with a gorgeous voice from Saratoga, NY, is well on her way to becoming the next pop sensation and a common name among both young and old in every household. With only an EP under her belt she has already been compared to popular female vocalists such as Tristan Pettyman and A Fine Frenzy, who she shares producer Hal Cragin with...Lindsey's soft and sweet vocals are a perfect match for the beautiful guitar, and although the chords are simple the notes bring an element of elegance to the songs, proving that music doesn't have to be complicated to be good. The young Miss Mae picked up a guitar at the early age of 15 and in just 4 years has written over 50 songs about life and love, bringing a refreshingly bright and young innocence to a world so full of negativity and sorrow...How old is she again!? She has already inspired me to pick up my guitar, dust it off, and give it a go again after years of neglect. With her whole life ahead of her it is truly amazing what she has done in just 4 years, and there is no question she will be inspiring people for many more." Music She Blogged, 9/15/09
I tell stories from what i see and what i feel, for all the world to hear, understand, and relate to. Music is all about the story behind the writer, inside the noise, between the written words. It's about the story that comes with it and the one you make of it. It is the spaces left empty between the lines for you to fill with your own story, to finish the story. That is what music is...one big never-ending story.
My story goes a little like this; I picked up my first guitar, an italian acoustic from the 70's, when I was fifteen and have been writing and performing every since. I've always found writing to be a fascinating thing. It describes feelings, moments and scenery and it became an inspiration for me to share these things with others. I began to write about everything. The way the sky looks like a sherbet horizon at sunset, the way love feels when it’s fresh in your heart. I took the most random of thoughts from pain to glory, from loneliness to hopefulness, and poured all those thoughts into music. I began to see everything in life for all that it is, from many perspectives.
After just three years, I've grown a lot of strength in songwriting and performing by using my life experiences to propel me forward. I've continued to write, perform, and bring a glowing ambience to the forefront. Since I began working with Randy Eisen (Randy Eisen Entertainment, LLC), and Hal Cragin (A Fine Frenzy, Virgin/EMI), my ambitions have only skyrocketed, and my efforts have only evolved. No dream is ever out of reach when you strive for it with confidence.
I will always share my music with you and bring you inside my world with the hope that the music will allow my stories to become your own.
"Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving." A wish to my friend is to have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving with the ones you love.
For each new morning with its light, For rest and shelter of the night, For health and food, for love and friends, For everything Thy goodness sends. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
