Lynda Lemay on Tour
Since the early '90s, Lynda Lemay has dazzled her audiences with her beautiful voice and her intimate, heartfelt lyrics. The French-Canadian singer/songwriter is on her 2022-2023 tour across Canada and Europe, making stops in Canada, France and Belgium. Her expertly written lyrics are sure to make the audience tear up, either from the touching nature of her songs and the romance behind them, or from the humor Lemay brings to the monotony of everyday life. Lemay first reached the spotlight in 1989 after winning the Best Singer/Songwriter award in the Granby Song Contest for her song "La Veilleuse." Soon after, Lemay signed with Warner Music Canada where she released her debut album Nos Rêves (1990).
