about
Stevie Holland continues to chart her own path as a completely original artist and unique song stylist. A dynamic performer and intelligent lyricist, she’s traversed many musical worlds, headlining at top concert halls, jazz clubs and cabaret rooms, developing an unusually eclectic fan base. Her current project is a one-woman theatrical adventure entitled Love, Linda: The Life Of Mrs. Cole Porter (Original Cast Recording). With music and lyrics by Cole Porter and book by Stevie with Gary William Friedman, Love, Linda stars Stevie as Linda Lee Thomas, the Southern beauty who married and was a driving force behind legendary songwriter Cole Porter at the dawn of the roaring twenties. Though Cole Porter was gay, their companionship and love lasted through 35 years of marriage and together they lived a spectacular, glamour-filled life. With swinging, jazz-inflected arrangements by Gary William Friedman, Porter’s timeless music and lyrics weave through the compelling narrative, examining the darker sides of Linda and Cole's life, while celebrating the deep love they shared. The cast album was recorded and released February 2010. After two sold-out runs last year at the Triad Theater, Love, Linda www.lovelindathemusical.com has been touring regionally in the East and is currently in development. Her previous CD Before Love Has Gone, a collection of rarely recorded classics, standards and original songs, including the title track penned by Stevie and Gary William Friedman, received
