As a singer/songwriter Jo Linder's contemporary country style has provided her an opportunity to open for acts ranging from Kenny Loggins to John Hartford. She credits her songwriting to Carol King, Lennon/McCartney and Joni Mitchell.
Born in Southern California, Jo Linder began playing guitar and writing songs at the age of thirteen. "I was very fortunate to fall in with a group of excellent musicians early on" says Linder. She honed her craft over the years of playing on the road across the U.S. She now makes her home in Nashville, Tn. where she is working on her 2nd album due out in the summer of 2006.
In 1997 Jo co-produced her first independent album YOU JUST GET TO ME" with drummer Doc Perrin.
"songs like LOOSE EXCUSE, DAVEY'S ROOM and YOU JUST GET TO ME would all be monster hits if Garth, Dolly and LeAnn covered them"...Mathew Lawson- The Album Network.
"snaps with the same country-pop-rock amalgum that Mary Chapin Carpenter and Trisha Yearwood have used to shoot country into the mainstream"....Bruce Sylvester-Goldmine
"Linder's thoughtful, sometimes pensive lyrics and vocal style will be right at home on Progressive stations that embrace Americana" ...Adult Radio Picks-FMQB
Jo has had her songs cut by country artist Buddy Jewell along with many indie artists. She's recently had several songs placed with TV shows like CMT greatest road trips, The Fall Guy, Northern Exposure and CBS's Cold Case.
