Donna Lynn Caskey is an innovative clawhammer “Banjo Gal,” as she is known, and so much more. A strong songwriter, her work simultaneously acknowledges life’s difficulties and offers a genuine message of hope. Her sound retains a timeless quality that hearkens back to traditional old-time mountain music and bluegrass while artfully exploring contemporary subject matter. Audiences appreciate Donna Lynn’s heartfelt, playful, and engaging stage presence and the opportunity to sing along during performances.

Donna Lynn grew up the youngest of ten children in a musical family on the Virginia coast. She attended college in the Blue Ridge, where she fell in love with and acquired her first banjo. She was awarded a scholarship to an intensive beginning banjo class at the John C. Campbell Folk School in North Carolina shortly before moving to California by train in 2001. Within months, she started writing songs and playing shows.

Donna Lynn’s debut album of original material, Nameless Heart, was released in 2014 to glowing reviews and widespread airplay on folk radio. The Ventura, California based artist recently completed her second album, The Love Still Shows, release date: February 10th 2017. For more information, please connect via her website and social media.
