Born in Gordonsville, Va., Lindsey moved to Saginaw, Michigan at an early age
and has been a fixture on the music scene there since he was a 17-year-old
gigging around Detroit. A stint as a medic in the military led him to pursue a
career in the medical field, first as an EMT/paramedic with the Detroit Fire
Department.
After earning degrees at the University of Detroit Mercy and University of
Nebraska, he took a job as a physician's assistant at Aleda E. Lutz Veterans
Hospital in Saginaw, where he currently now serves. Through it all, however,
he's never abandoned his music career nor his southern roots.
Through the years, he's continued to study and work on his artistic craft,
studying with a time for the late Obie Benson and the Four Tops and eventually
opening for well-known acts such as
Latimore, Willie Clayton, New Birth, |

Enchantment and others. He's also cut a number of regionally well-received CDs
including his latest, "Caught" (Pulsating Music/Phat Sound Promotions), produced
by Simeo Overall. With such a deep southern soul R&B sound tempered with a bit
Motown sound ala Marvin Gaye (or maybe even a little Frankie Beverly), Lindsey,
or "Doc" as fans sometimes call him, proves that he never abandoned the roots
that made soul music the best music in the world. |
