Album Notes

Linda Draper, a singer/songwriter from New York City, has gained a local following from playing in local music venues such as The Bitter End, The Knitting Factory, and the Sidewalk Cafe. Lach, who started the Antifolk music scene (www.antifolk.net) describes Ms. Draper as: "Witty, clever, and the voice of a church choir soloist...a cross between Suzanne Vega and Anne Sexton."

Linda Draper is a folksinger with a high register not unlike the one of folk mama Joan Baez.

Charming collection of miniature sketches of a timeless quality
author: Jos Van Den Boom, Brto-radio, Bergen Op Zoom, The Netherlands
Linda Draper is a young singer/songwriter from New York City that is well able to distinguish herself from the crowd. Her first full album Ricochet keeps growing every time it honours your CD-player. It’s a charming collection of miniature sketches, in which this self-willed singer/songwriter uses her characteristic, mesmerising, crystal clear voice to weave a web of self-penned folky songs. Linda’s music is refreshing in it’s simplicity. Ricochet contains 11 songs of a timeless quality that plainly demonstrates that Linda is a real talent!

Captivating lyrics sung by an angelic voice
