Lyn Carlberg launched his music career in Second Life, the virtual world of ten million residents worldwide. Lyn is from Wales UK, land of song, dragons and rugby, and is proud of his origins. He had been tinkering with his guitar since his college days, but only for his own amusement, and never dared play in public, but a few months in Second Life changed his outlook completely. Listening to Second Life performers such as Kim Seifert, TallGuy Kidd and Capos Calderwood and a hundred others, has been a treat for Lyn, and he grasped an opportunity to pick up his guitar again and start singing.
Lyn loves to listen to female vocalists and among his favorites are the late Eva Cassidy, Sandy Denny, Enya, and Kate Rusby.
Lyn plays a Stonebridge acoustic guitar, made by Furch in the Czech Republic. His music is varied but includes British and American folky styles, like Dylan, James Taylor, Paul Simon, Steve Earle, Luka Bloom. In his Second Life gigs you'll also hear some Welsh and Irish Traditional love songs, and Lyn's mushy-weepy romantic ballads are well known to have his audiences in tears. Tissues are provided :)
Lyn has his own Shoutcast based streaming music server.
