Linda McLean

CD: Betty's Room

BRTO Radio, Netherlands

Her debut album, ÒBetty's RoomÓ contains 11 excellent songs, which are a fine crossover of folk and pop. The album is now available in shops all over Europe and initial reactions have been brimful of praise. Dutch TV-host Mart Smeets, who also hosts a music show for VARA radio, was so stunned by this budding talent that he personally invited Linda to cross the pond to Holland to perform live in his radio show. Most of the fluid, ear-catchingly melodic songs on 'Betty's Room' are autobiographical and provide memorable insight. É This fine Canadian singer clearly has a lot more to offer than your average 'girl with guitar.'
