Lynn began "entertaining" at an early age-creating songs about her teachers and imitating the stars of the day. In her teens, as a camp counselor, Lynn's students kicked butt with air guitar renditions of "My Sharona". Her Mom says she's been "on-stage" since the day she was born!!

			In 1995-enroute to a gig, Deeves flipped the band truck over on an icy back road. This proved to be her "wakeup call" and she answered in 1996, with "Connecting the Dots"-a versatile mix of originals merging folk, blues and gospel influences. Lynn's sophomore effort "Soul Food" followed, celebrating Spiritual Growth, Nature, Diversity, and Humor. Lynn is known for her rich, soulful voice combined with a sharp wit and dynamic stage presence. Deeves' latest release "Live from Slate's" expands upon themes of humor& spirituality and was recorded in front of a home town crowd in Hallowell, Me. She gets support from diva's Colleen Sexton and Trina Hamlin. Lynn has shared stages with: America, Janis Ian, Cheryl Wheeler, Catie Curtis, Ellis Paul and many more. Travels have taken her to Arizona, California, Colorado and Nashville. Lynn has been named Maine Female Vocalist of the Year and won 2nd place in the 2005 New England Songwriting Contest.
