“Last Friday, we took to the streets in search of a healthy dose of rock, Buffalo-style, and caught top-notch acts the Alex Lynne Band, the Gifted Children and Astronaut Lost. The experience begged the question - why the heck would any music-lovin’ soul sit home on a Friday night in Buffalo? Lynne and band offered a powerful set of her country- and folk-based songs to an appreciative Continental audience. The singer’s emotional vocals and elegant melodies riveted the crowd.”
Jeff Miers, Buffalo News



"An amazing night of music took place on February 20, 2003 at Mohawk Place in downtown Buffalo. The twin pairings of singer songwriter guitarists Alex Lynne and Jim Whitford and headlining duo Stacey Earle and Mark Stuart gave an appreciative crowd of one hundred or so patrons an unforgettable night of musical enjoyment. Opening the evening was Buffalo singer songwriter Alex Lynne and guitarist Jim Whitford. Her cosmopolitan good looks and disarming humor belie her strong songwriting and performing skills. Mixing her own songs with some choice covers, her soft comforting voice and Whitford’s expressive guitar playing had the rapt attention of the crowd. Highlights of Lynne’s set included her own songs “Heartache”, “December” and “Shameful Fire”. She punctuated her set with great renditions of Julie Miller’s “All My Tears” and a poignant version of Jackson Browne’s “Lives In The Balance”.
