Album Notes

From the producer: Lindsay Mendez is a rare talent. At 13 she was already a comanding presence on stage. The 1st time she came into my studio she blew me away. Perfect time, great pitch. She did all the lead vocals and the backgrund vocals in one take. Lindsay is it he real deal. She's no Autotune artist. John Autin Producer

Sings Her Heart Out/ Move over Disney
author: Sheri McKee
Dec. CD Reviews Lindsay Mendez Reaching Out Rabadash Records Move over singing Disney diva teen queens and make room for native New Orleanian Lindsay Mendez, as this teen’s voice can run circles around lil’ Miss Hannah Montana. With rock, pop, and R & B influences, Mendez sings her heart out on her latest CD, Reaching Out, and dazzles from the first track “A Girl Can Get Hurt This Way,” a sweet tune about taking a chance on love. Lindsay Mendez’s Band, The Back Seat Drivers, brings some incredible key work, bass, drumming, and guitar skills to the table, with most members in their teens too. Mendez rocks it southern style on their first Rabadash recording, “Something Just Ain’t Right,” written by Annie Clements from Sugarland, who also lends her voice as background vocals. On “Reaching Out,” a very cheery pop inspired tune, Mendez shows off her clear vocal range by shining bright on every note, while she showcases her bluesy style and chops on “Blues Blvd.” One of the tracks that immediately showcases Mendez’s vocal talents and her band is “It Hurt So Bad,” throwing it back to a 50s era. Mendez shows off a simple vocal ballad on “I Believe in You,” written by Rabadash Owner John Autin and Theresa Anderson. This powerful ballad is also featured in the upcoming new animated feature, The Majistical, soon to be released in theaters. Just as I chose Lindsay Mendez as a WYAT Ones To Watch this past spring, when I listen to her voice, I truly believe this teen has just started to show some of her many talents and will definitely be going big places in the future. Don’t be too surprised if the name Lindsay Mendez becomes a local household favorite. I highly recommend catching this local gem in South Louisiana while you can and grabbing her fun rockin’ CD, Reaching Out. –Sheri McKee
