Jeff D. and Me

Our set up takes about 15 minutes. We each will be donning our acoustic guitars, mine is a black Martin and Jeff D. plays a maple Takamine, but may switch to his electric Fender Stratocaster during our longer performances. We have 2 mics, an AKG and Shure 58, with accompanying mic stands. Our PA system is a streamlined Bose Tower PA with 6 channel mixer. No chairs required, we'll be standing for most performances, unless the situation is so intimate it feels like we should sit. We are very flexible and are never late. We are professional as they come!

Lydia spent many years honing her craft in Atlanta. She opened for artists including Loudon Wainwright III, Peter Case, Shawn Mullins, and Indigo Girls and played shows with her band in the area’s top clubs.

Before settling in Columbus, Brownfield became a regular performer in the coffee houses of Greenwich Village and began a recording career that has continued to date.

Her songs reflect a lifetime of rich and also very human experiences. They include growing up in Columbus, Ohio, and studying at the local fine arts college. A decade of living and performing in Atlanta and touring the south. A move to New York City and going through two difficult divorces. And most importantly, becoming a mom. All of this brings a dramatic, energetic, and entertaining live show.

Brownfield’s music influences range widely from folk and alternative country to power pop and punk, and her songs cross many of those same genres but find a comfortable spot among edgy folk/pop artists. Her pure and powerful voice has been compared to Alison Krauss, Sinéad O'Connor, and Sheryl Crow. Brownfield’s range of experiences extends to her live show.

For the Summer of 2022, Lydia will be playing live in and around the Columbus, Ohio area with her partner, Jeff Dalrymple. Lydia and Jeff have been playing music together for about a decade. As a duo, their intricate guitar stylings and vocal harmonies set them apart from the crowd. This year, they've announced a new collection of cover songs and summer shows to showcase them, including songs by The Smith's, The Cure, Psychedelic Furs, Roxy Music, Radiohead and many more!

We have all that's required to perform for large groups or small groups. Our Bose Tower PA can accommodate up to approx. 4000 square feet, or up to approx. 300 listeners.
