The Lynn Bobby Band
http://www.lynnbobby.com
Lynn Bobby moved to San Francisco and started performing in 1988, right out of college. So, it's no surprise she calls San Francisco her hometown. Although she has admittedly played under far too many band names, such as DMQ, My So Called Band, Coyote Blue, and Electric Eggplant, and on and on and on... the name she prefers and intends to stick with is Lynn Bobby and/or The Lynn Bobby Band. Her band mates, Howard Vatcher (lead guitar), twin brother Don Vatcher (bass guitar) and Kenny Susan (drums), tend to agree with her.

All three boys in the band got their musical start in Humboldt County, California, and bring their rich, inspired, organic liveliness to the band weaving it together in a beautiful and intense tapestry of all original rock music, with Lynn Bobby at the helm.
"Attempting to explain Lynn Bobby's music is quite a challenge. Groundbreaking, original, surprising and impossible to categorize . . . that's a start. A friend tried and said, ..She can rock as hard as anyone and then create the most tender ballads imaginable. She's hard to figure out... Lynn's songs draw you in. Her lyrics are, at once, smooth and flowing, then take a quick turn with surprising twists. Lynn's band turns in one inspiring performance after another on these tracks. There is a creative energy at work here that is a revelation. This music is about bitter truths and sweet longings. Cold realities and warm hopes. Lynn is backed by inspired musicians like Howard Vatcher on electric guitar adding unique layers and textures that make these songs soar. Satin and steel. Silk and sandpaper. It's wind whipped in the hot sand.. and the most relaxing, deepest breath you've ever known. That's a start. But I still can't explain Lynn Bobby. I'll always enjoy trying, but sometimes the pleasure is in the indefinable mystery . . ."~Paul Severino
