Linq is listed in the female folk and rock categories of the database.

 

Linq has always lived in the North Quabbin area of Massachusetts. After graduating from Northeastern University with a pharmacy degree, she went into and eventually took over her family’s independent business.

Recently, Linq’s lifetime passion for music has taken on a new and exciting dimension. At an age when many look forward to retirement, Linq is kicking it up, cranking it out, and defying stereotypes. In December 2002 she decided that it was time to start sharing her music with the public, and she hasn’t looked back. She released a single called “War Machine” in June 2003, and her first full length CD, “Journey”, was released in July 2004.

Linq’s music twists and turns from folk/rock to classic rock, from love and loss to political, and from serious to outright fun.

On November 30, 2004 Linq sold her pharmacy to be able to spend more time writing and recording. Her latest CD, “Fast Moving Dream” (June 2006), resonates with life experience without resorting to trite and tired images, and she’s exploring a separate project: a healthcare/small business CD from an insider’s point of view.

Linq has opened for the legendary June Millington, Steve Forbert, and the Hunger Mountain Boys, and has shared the stage with Sonya Kitchell, 2001 JPF nominee Lisa Martin, the soulful Marsia Shuron Harris, the Valley’s favorite party band Trailer Park, the Ethan Stone Band, and the emerging “symphonic metal” phenomenon Adam Bergeron. She has been a “regular” at the annual 1794 Meetinghouse Musicfest and has shared the stage there with June Millington, Patty Larkin, Northern Lights, Mark Erelli, Michael Pickett, Sister Funk, and Rani Arbo and Daisy Mayhem.
