Singer/Songwriter Lakin to Perform February 11

Powerful musical performer, Lakin will be performing at MSU-Northern on February 11 at the Student Union Ballroom at 7 p.m. Lakin is a young singer/songwriter with a voice sweeter than honey, 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.

On her excellently received album, If Night Turns to Daylight, Lakin displays her multiple talents of writing, performing, arranging, and producing. 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 sure to penetrate not only the listener's ear, but the listener's heart.

Admission for this performance is free to MSU-Northern students, faculty and staff. Admission for community members is $5 for adults and $3 for students.
