Singer songwriter loves ministering through music By Jean Gordon
majoring in discipleship, Lindy chooses to live at home in order to focus more on her music in the evenings. With her music, Lindy hopes to continue to write and sing songs that will share the love of Jesus with people. Whether she is singing for 200 people or 2,000 people, she wants to minister to her audiences. For Lindy, the best day in the life of a Christian singer is “hearing someone tell you that your music led them to Jesus.” Her toughest days are when she sees bad things going on in the world and sees people turning away from God. Lindy won the Don Gibson Singer Songwriter Competition in 2022. She has a new album to be released soon and released her first ever music video on June 28, available on YouTube or Facebook. Her music can be streamed on Apple Music, Spotify, You Tube and Pandora. The daughter of Buster and Allana Bryson, Lindy is a junior at Gardner-Webb University. She has older brothers Lee and Clay. A member at Boiling Springs Baptist Church, Lindy is the music ministry intern at Ross Grove Baptist Church. When she’s not singing and writing songs, she enjoys spending time with her family, her Chocolate Lab Charlie Ann, and being outside in nature.
A Dolly Parton fan for as long as she can remember, Lindy Bryson has released her first ever music video and recently signed with publishing company, Blank Slate Music Group. Lindy, 20, of Boiling Springs, NC is “sharing Jesus with a country twist” presenting concerts throughout the region, and writing her own songs and music while completing her education at GardnerWebb University. “I have been singing in church since I was three years old and my biggest passion is to lead worship and help people love on Jesus,” she said. Her favorite music genres these days are country and contemporary Christian. “My all time favorite song is ‘Goodness Of God’ by Bethel Music because it reminds me of my purpose which is to sing and worship Jesus,” Lindy said. Dolly Parton is Lindy’s favorite songwriter because “her songs tell a story and you can tell they come straight from the heart.” When listening to music, she prefers the sounds of Dolly Parton, Zach Williams, Cody Johnson and Lainey Wilson. Her playlist includes “If I Got Jesus” by Ben Fuller, “My Jesus” by Anne Wilson and “By Your Grace” by Cody Johnson.
