New Music Video!

“I Won’t Wonder Why” is the first music video off of Rory’s debut album. This video was shot over the course of one day at the Liminal Space Collective’s temporary headquarters at the Circle Church on the Westside of Santa Cruz. It is a glimpse into the life of someone suffering from paranoid delusions as they navigate through the city.

New Music for Old Souls

Rory Lynch is New Music for Old Souls. A dose of well needed nostalgia for our modern times. He is a street poet crooning out indie folk hits. Melodically tiptoeing and dancing on the ever shifting lines between pop, folk, country, and jazz. In recent years his music has shifted to encompass multiple genres such as R&B, Neosoul, Bossa Nova, and even some hip-hop. Originally hailing from Philadelphia, this itinerant troubadour calls the central California Coast home. He can be found singing and playing in wineries, dive bars, house parties, your local venue, or just on the street. His debut album ‘Sittin’ On The Well’ premiered in November 2022.
