This strong bossa nova offering alludes to the fact that the sound's
enduring American popularity is steeped in DC roots...a cover of BOB
MARLEY's slow burning reggae classic "WAITING IN VAIN" is a clarion
call to a wild new ideal for this most storied of genres. Lead vocalist
LYNN VERONNEAU's lustrous timbre recalls the style of legends like JOAO
GILBERTO while strong musicianship makes the listener comfortable in
the idea that though STAN GETZ and company may no longer be physically
with us, the memory of their potent legacy remains intact"
-.MARCUS DOWLING "ON TAP MAGAZINE" May 2012. VERONNEAU is an acoustic, song-based group playing Latin Jazz, Gypsy Swing and much more.

LYNN VERONNEAU lights up the stage, engaging the audience with her vocal interpretations. The acoustic guitars of KEN AVIS and DAVID ROSENBLATT and percussion of PETE WALBY provide the rhythm, harmony and energy to propel the music from Brazilian samba, to French chanson to standards of The American Songbook.

program producer for ROCKWiRED.COM, LUSH is hands-on when it
comes to
interviewing and building a lasting rapport with the artists that come
ROCKWiRED's
way. As a youngster, BRIAN LUSH had no idea what kind of seed was being
planted
by reading magazines such as HIT PARADE, HIGH TIMES, SPIN, REQUEST
(remember
that one?) and even ROLLING STONE. "Those were the days before the
internet and being a rock journalist
looked
like the coolest job imaginable." says LUSH "But reading these
magazines had me
imagining that one day I'd be the artist giving all of the clever
answers to
some poor guy with a tape recorder. Well, life has a way of surprising
you.
Now, I'm the poor guy with the tape recorder and asking all of the
questions."CONTACT
