ABOUT LINDI ORTEGA
Armed with an inimitable, irresistible singing voice that The Independent hailed as “a truly magnificent instrument” and a heart bursting with creative ambition, Lindi Ortega embraces the oft-neglected, politically incorrect realism of traditional country and frames it in a charmingly and sometimes darkly humorous contemporary context. This “love child of Johnny Cash and Nancy Sinatra” (American Songwriter) has opened for a variety of acts — including punk vets Social Distortion, country fave Dierks Bentley and indie folk outfit Noah & The Whale — with attention-grabbing finesse.
