Jay Talking Profile: Boston Musician Mary Lou Lord

My name is Bradley Jay and I host the Jay Talking radio show which airs weekday mornings on WBZ NewsRadio 1030 from midnight to five. Like the Jay Talking Facebook page. The Twitter handle is @jaytalkingwbz

Mary Lou Lord is a Boston music survivor. Her first involvement with music was as a DJ with a local college radio station. Soon she began busking on the streets of Boston and London.
A chance encounter at iconic Boston nightclub, The Rat, with Nirvana's Curt Cobain eventually opened doors to music scene heavies and a shot at the big time.

A few years and many gigs later, Lord is still creating music, and still a bona fide member of the Boston music scene, with a new album on the way.

Mary Lou it a true artist in that she creates music not because she wants to, but because she has to. It is as necessary to hear as breath itself.

See Mary Lou tell her story as Bradley Jay asks the questions in a recent interview taped in a WBZ-TV studio.
