Chanteuse
Country US née le 5 Décembre 1984 à Houston (Texas).
Lera
Lynn's big break arrived in 2014, when she was cast as a moody lone troubadour
in the second season of HBO's dark crime drama True Detective. Her desolate Lynchian scenes
suggested a spare, skeletal singer/songwriter, but Lynn's music is richer than
that: she draws equally from classic country and literary Americana, creating an
ethereal spell from roots music.
A native of Houston, Texas, Lynn played music as a teenager but decided to major
in anthropology when she attended the University of Georgia. Eventually, she was
drawn to music, releasing an independent debut called Have You Met Lera Lynn? in
2011. The record received some acclaim -- its song "Bobby, Baby" won the Chris
Austin Songwriting Competition at 2011's Merlefest and the record helped her win
Best Country Artist at her local Flagpole Music Awards in Athens. Three years
later, she released the EP Lying in the Sun, followed by the dreamy full-length The
Avenues, which received excellent reviews. This caught the attention of T-Bone
Burnett, who was producing the soundtrack for True Detective's second season. Burnett hired Lynn to
collaborate with him and Rosanne
Cash on songs for the series, a break that helped raise her profile. She
capitalized on that attention in 2016 with Resistor, an album that bore a more
overt rock influence than its predecessors.
