Crowd Pleaser by Highway Angel Singer Performs One Hell of a Show
Savvy politicians “work the room”. Athletes who single- handedly affect the outcome of a contest are “gamechangers”, and the best entertainers “bring down the house”. And on a recent trip in Nashville, I got to watch a 5’3” dynamo named Lindsay Lawler do all three. While in Music City to attend an industry event on driver recruiting and retention, someone suggested I come to Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge to see Lawler, who recently recorded the Highway Angel song for the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA). For the past 50 years, people have been clapping hands and stomping feet at Tootsie’s, the Nashville bar where singers have taken the stage in hopes of being discovered – so I knew I would have a good time. What I experienced was like watching the Tasmanian Devil with a twang. Lawler attacked the microphone and owned the stage from the ﬁrst note, electrifying the audience with powerful, original vocals and lyrics that would resonate with those in attendance from the trucking industry. In fact, trucking is one of the themes on her new original CD, Train Wreck, which Lawler gave to me while signing autographs after her Tootsie’s performance. I was intrigued by the cover image of her backed up to the grill of a semi truck, and was able to listen to the CD the next day. Fortunately, I also had the opportunity to see Lawler perform at Tootsie’s again that night, and interviewed her after another sizzling set. When asked about the image she chose for the CD, Lawler said, “My album is rockin’ country, and with songs on it like Truckers And Rodeo Crowds, it just felt right for a powerful semi to be the cover of the record!” Lawler says she has a special connection with truck drivers. “While playing at Tootsie’s, I have met several drivers that are passing through town or waiting on a load. I spent quite some time talking to each of these awesome people and hearing their amazing stories,” Lawler stated. “I quickly realized that this was an industry similar to my own, since musicians are also constantly on the road. We share similar issues such as leaving family behind and meeting new people every day, so I decided this was an awesome group of people to tap into and that making trucking music was to be my new agenda.” As of this writing, Lawler was preparing to sing at the uDrove Humanitarian Bowl, with several others venues on tap for 2011. For folks lucky enough to see Lawler live, take advantage of the opportunity. In the meantime, you can check her out online, where Lindsay has started a blog that features stories from the road, her music, her trucking ‘peeps’ and various other odds and ends. It’s called The Long Haul and can be found at http://www.longhaulerlawler.typepad.com. Youcan also visit her fan page at www. facebook.com/ lindsaylawlerfans as well as www. lindsaylawler.com. Both sites have pictures, videos, and music.

Lindsay Lawler by Rocking Nashville and Talking Trucking
When Lindsay Lawler takes the stage at the world-famous Tootsies Orchid Lounge in Nashville, TN, the mostly tourist crowd gets exactly what they came to Nashville to see – hot country music that captures the heart and soul of hometown America. This is the people’s music, and the people love to hear Lindsay sing as she immediately captures the audience with her high-energy stage show and powerful singing voice. Driver HEALTHcame to Tootsies on this Wednesday night to see Lindsay’s show and talk to this dynamic rising country music star about her devotion to the American Trucker and her new affiliation with the Healthy Truck-ing Association of America (HTAA). Lindsay is one of many country music artists who have signed on to promote the HTAA and help us improve the health of our nation’s professional drivers. But most of the other people at Tootsies tonight didn’t come to interview Lindsay–they came to hear this 5-foot 3-inch ball of fire belt out her brand of hot country at this legendary live music venue, and by the time she finishes her encore at the end of the night, the people know that they got exactly what they came to see. After an action-packed performance that included leaving the stage at one point to stroll across the top of the bar, Lindsay appropriately wraps her show up with her original song, “Truckers and Rodeo Crowds.” After spending some quality time talking with her fans and signing autographs, Lindsay makes it back to our table to sit down and answer a few ques- tions for our readers. INTERVIEW DELETED DUE TO LENGTH...CUT TO LAST QUESTION: You have a lot of fans out there who are truck drivers. Is there anything you’d like to say to them? I salute all of the hard-working men and women who spend so much of their life on the road. I have become attached to the industry and have loved hearing their stories from the road, and more importantly hearing that they listen to my music on their long hauls! I thank you all so much for the support and hope to continue to write music that inspires you and keeps you truckin’!

Today's Country Magazine by Lawler Lays Down The Law
The truly original showcase introduction was a welcome surprise when Tiffany, yes, “the” Tiffany, took the stage to introduce her talented friend at Nashville’s 12th and Porter. In a multi-colored flood of lights, Lindsay Lawler blazed onto the famous stage like a pony that had just been let out of its stall. It only took seconds for the electrified artist to get and then keep our attention. The more we heard, the more we wanted to hear from this Sooner-born singer who didn’t sound like anyone but herself. Just by the design of her logo, we knew in advance that this would probably be no ordinary performer. With a group of musicians well-versed in the fusion of country and rock, Lindsay’s passionate vocals were accented throughout by her equally zealous stage presence. Setting her apart from others, her dance moves created a moving illustration on the stage, not just the usual rocking to the beat but focused arm and hand movements completing the picture, much like a figure skater’s motions that were seasoned with a smidge of the Jagger hip swing. It could be no surprise to learn that this performer has opened for Kid Rock, played Sunset Strip’s Viper Room and enjoyed being a nationally syndicated radio personality on Kidd Kraddick in the Morning. As this Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge crowd favorite began with “I’ve Always Been a Rebel”, we could easily connect the delivery with the image portrayed on her new CD as she poses at the grill of a semi. In a black fringed mini and the highest of heels, she ran through “My Name Ain’t Baby”, meaning just what it says, “Spin the Bottle” and the up-tempo “Truckers and Rodeo Crowds”. “Dirt on her Dress” was as country as can be in this fiery set of songs that were all co-written by Lindsay, recorded at Villa Sound and mixed at the celebrated Sound Stage Studio. She saved a surprise for the end then she blew it all out with a song she had written for Whitesnake (must have been before she was born). We recognized the opening chords instantly for “Here I Go Again”. A performance you shouldn’t miss, a site you must visit and listen up, a CD you’ll have to have, and a career you’ll want to watch - that would be Lindsay Lawler. Speaking for a good part of Nashville, we think we’ll keep her. Lindsay Lawler is at at www.lindsaylawler.com.
