 Local singer-songwriter has performed with her band numerous times at many of the local clubs, coffeehouses, and bookstores. She was featured in the Chicago SunTimes Weekend Section (May 8, 1998) by Pop/Rock music critic Jim DeRogatis. According to DeRogatis: "In her self-titled nine-song debut CD, Chicago singer-songwriter Linda M. Smith follows the path of lulling such female folk-rockers as Shawn Colvin and Natalie Merchant.
