about
Lyn
Levett is composer, musician and dancer extraordinaire!
She has performed in physical theatre performances across Europe and in
venues across the UK.
It all began in the mid 80's with inspiration from bands like The The,
The Mission, Japan and many more, Lyn started writing lyrics and got one
of her songs put to music. The song was produced by Danny Chang who Lyn
got in touch with after hearing him appeal for local talent on a radio
programme for unsigned artists. It was then made into a single and was
featured on Radio One's Newsbeat and played on Radio Two.
Technology has enabled Lyn to produce music with her nose, which is the
easiest way as she has cerebral palsy. She started out by buying a cheap
computer which came with a music sequencing program.
"I messed around with it. I took lessons at Cardiff Community
Music, as it was then known. I was a tutor on a songwriting course in
Scotland with Maggie Rily, where I met Tim Anderson from The Drake Music
Project".
Tim
showed her how to use Cubase, another sequencing package which ran on
an Atari computer. "I was completely hooked and got them as a
payment for tutoring".
So
that's how it all began!
With advances in music technology Lyn has now set up her own studio at
home where she works on a regular projects with other artists. She enjoys
performing and composing with regular gigs in London. Lyn's ambitions
are to buy a big house and build a huge music studio and set up a record
label and over turn the record industry so that it doesn't pander to twelve
year old kids who are conditioned to lust over pop idols.
Sit back and enjoy the ride!
