Lakin to perform at Northern

From Montana State University-Northern

Powerful musical performer Lakin will be performing at Montana State University-Northern at 7 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 11, at the Student Union Building Ballroom. 

Lakin is a young singer and songwriter whom critics have said has a voice sweeter than honey and whose combination of genre-defying musical styles, stunning melodic gifts, beauty, and warmth shine through in her heartfelt lyrics and powerful performances.

She grew up in an entertainment based family in Riverside, California, and went on to major in jazz studies at Long Beach State.

Lakin has cultivated a loyal fan base throughout Southern California, opening for such major acts as Sheryl Crow, Colbie Caillat, Brian McKnight, Sheila E. and Gladys Knight.

Her album If Night Turns to Daylight displays her multiple talents of writing, performing, arranging, and producing. 

Reviewers said her striking collection of songs represents a revolution of the spirit-reflecting themes that go beyond the superficial and into the deeper human experience of the reconciliation of the soul.

Her music is performed to penetrate not only the listener's ear, but the listener's heart.

  Admission for this performance is free to Northern students, faculty and staff. Community members may attend for $5 for adults and $3 for students.
