BIO: You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll call your therapist. With influences ranging from Bob Dylan to Ani DiFranco, Lindsay White's (she/her) songwriting has earned recognition from Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Kerrville Folk Festival, and American Songwriter. Her latest record Lights Out debuted #2 on the iTunes Singer-Songwriter charts, was named #1 Album of the Year by Global Texan Chronicles, and earned her a San Diego Music Award for Best Singer-Songwriter. Subsequent singles "The Hound" and "The Funeral" also debuted #13 on the same iTunes chart, the latter earning a 2020 San Diego Music Award nomination. White was recently named one of "15 Lesbian/Bi/Queer Musical Artists You Need to Know" by AfterEllen.com. She has opened for notable acts such as The Lone Bellow, David Crosby, Steve Poltz, Susanna Hoffs (The Bangles), Raining Jane ft. Jason Mraz, and more.
White is a queer, intersectional/inclusive feminist, activist, mental health advocate, grief support advocate, and writer. She has led songwriting workshops for Rock n' Roll Camp for Girls San Diego, participated in Pride events throughout the country, and independently published a narrative essay called "Love by the Numbers: What to do (and not to do) when your Bipolar partner thinks she's Jesus" as well as a PR guide called "DIY Publicity for Indie Creatives."
In 2018, she organized the Lady Brain Collective, a supportive and collaborative group of local womn/nonbinary folks pursuing careers in the arts. She also volunteers with a local mutual aid centered on food and social justice called We All We Got SD. White relies on support from, Lindsay's Corner, an exclusive community of dedicated friends and fans who always make her journey as an independent artist feel like a group effort.
