My keynote work is a unique blend of authentic speaking/storytelling, playful audience interaction, and live, soul-stirring original music. I collaborate with organizations and event strategy teams to create transformative, memorable, high-impact emotional experiences for your community.
After working with your team to carefully consider your event goals, guests, messaging, space, timeline and other key elements, I curate a customized, engaging performance experience that amplifies your message.
On stage, I build immediate connection with the audience, and continue to "read the room" and intuitively respond to the moment. (Sometimes I even create live music in the moment, like in the video clips below!) Together, we become an energized, engaged community with a shared focus on what matters most. |
"People will never forget how you made them feel.”

I believe people learn best when their hearts and (both sides of their) brains are engaged. My approach is influenced by many years of experience performing, improvising, presenting, facilitating, composing and recording albums, traveling and collaborating internationally, as well as working as a board-certified music therapist in trauma/hospital settings.

My work is adaptable to your unique event goals, messaging and community.
"Lynn absolutely transforms events with her jaw-dropping, toe-tapping gifts, whether she's writing songs on the fly or playing the perfect song to reflect or lift the mood. Magic happens whenever Lynn is part of an event."
