Warren Lydia

American teenage blues fan and prodigy whose weekend gigs are causing a buzz in her local clubs. A singer-guitarist-songwriter, Lydia, a high-school senior, amazes fans with her control and professionalism. Lydia took clarinet lessons as a kid, studied voice, took up the bass and at 14, bought a Fender Stratocaster. She fell in love with jazz through a videotape that included bluesman Albert King.

By the end of 2000, Lydia has made a demo and started her own band, and has a CD in the works. Read less
