apr 23 | Today is a great day. The debut full-length record, Bird Wings in the Bleak, is done and today is it’s big birthday/release day. And I must say that it turned out better than I hoped it would. The release show is TONIGHT, April 23, at the Taggart Student Center Auditorium at the Utah State University campus. On this shiny new website you can take a listen to some of the songs, buy the album, download some mp3s, read the lyrics, see upcoming shows, and more. Thanks for listening.
Libbie Linton is a mild-mannered, soft-spoken type who likes math and
limeade. She learned how to whistle when she was 3-years old, sitting
cross-legged on the floor of her bedroom. When she was in
kindergarten, she started memorizing the words to popular songs and
singing them quietly to herself. Around this time, she happened to
catch the campfire scene from The Jerk in which Steve Martin and
Bernadette Peters sing a lovely rendition of the old Billy Rose &
Lee David classic, “Tonight You Belong to Me”. From this point
forward, the dream was to sing this song for an audience, which has
since been accomplished. Early influences led to a proclivity for
progressive folk themes and for writing unique, memorable, and
literate songs. more »
