Lynn Olagundoye's 'Africa Violet' CD Release Party on Friday March 31st!

[Absurd Machine]

"In an age where the austere, mechanical piston thump of drum machines has come to dominate R&B, soul music doesn't sound all that soulful. That's why Calgary's Lynn Olagundoye is such a breath of fresh air!"

-Jordan Lane, Beateroute Magazine (Calgary)

Absurd Machine Records is proud to present the release of Lynn Olagundoye's debut album.

The CD Release Party will take place Friday, March 31st at the Gateway in SAIT (Calgary). $5 at the door, doors open at 8pm.

Lynn is a 23 year-old singer/lyricist from Calgary with a voice that blends smooth r&b and soul with compelling lyrics and a fresh sound that incorporates funk, jazz, rock, afrobeat, roots-reggae, and oldschool pop influences.

Guerrilla Funk Monster, who Lynn performs with regularly in Calgary, performed all of the music on the album, and several members from the band are backing her up live.

The debut album is already getting rave reviews, and Lynn has quickly garnered a reputation around Calgary as a “must see†artist.
