Lynn Carey Saylor is a friend of Brian May of Queen fame

Lynn's online presence and ever-growing fanbase continued to expand with the exposure from her websites where people could check out her songs for themselves and get to find out all about her talents. 

Music companies have recognised Lynn's talents too. Dean Markley Strings, as well as Goodsell and Wizard Amplifiers, have all endorsed her songs and skills.

Then just last year saw the release of Lynn Carey Saylor's long-awaited debut album You Like It Clean, which features 10 of her own compositions, any of which are chart-quality songs, plus the 1984 Pat Benatar hit We Belong, which once again has Brian May contributing his skills. This song was written by Eric Lowen and Dan Navarro, and the original songwriters helped Lynn with her recording too as well as appearing in the video of the session.

Eric sadly has now lost his battle with the crippling disease ALS in March 2012 and is no longer with us, but this didn't stop him getting involved in the production of the song he helped write. He lives on in his music. Lynn's talented producer husband, Skip Saylor, was in control of recording and production for the album at the Skip Saylor Recording Studios in Los Angeles.

Lynn's song I Wasn't A Friend, also on the album, addresses the dangers of drink-driving but without preaching in any way and this track is currently receiving a lot of well-deserved attention. Lynn cares about other people and doing what she can to help change the world for the better, and this shows not only in her actions as a person but is reflected in her lyrics. Besides her own music, Lynn is also in charge of GuitarGirls.com, which as the name suggests, is a site dedicated to promoting the talents of other female singer-songwriter guitarists.

At the time this was originally written, Lynn had been about to visit the UK in May, where she had publishers and labels in London interested in her songs. I was not surprised - she is a truly gifted singer-songwriter and it is a real mystery as to why she hasn't been snapped up before and become a chart-topping star. As part of her visit to Britain, Lynn also featured on Sue Marchant's BBC radio show, so 2008 was a very memorable year for my friend Lynn Carey Saylor.
