Singer-songwriter Linda Chorney is a big star in a small galaxy. Her talent has taken her around the world, accumulating fans that span the globe. Those who know her work are addicted. Once you stick any of her CD's in your player, it generally never comes out. Her lyrics are honest, vulnerable, humorous, brave, and above all, genuine. She delivers her melodic stories with a soothing, strong voice that is earthy and non-calculating. Hers is a voice to which one cannot grow tired of listening. And actually listening will take you on an autobiographical journey of Linda's relationships and experiences with which many identify. She sings things most people think, but don't have the balls to admit.

Chorney taught herself how to play guitar at age ten. She handles her instrument with conviction, and confidently attacks rhythm as well as dynamically bringing it down to the appropriate feel. Her playing was recognized by "Millennia Guitars". As a result, the company sponsored her and even designed a line of guitars called "The Linda Chorney Signature Series". And her set-ups and winging dialogue between songs will keep you laughing. On the other hand, it may bring an emotional tear to your eye. She will go from one extreme to the other, as life can. Her interpretations of Classic Cover tunes should not be missed, as she mixes them up in-between her huge catalog of originals.
