Everything You Wanted to Know About Glad We Met Singer-Songwriter Avery Lynch

Over the years, singer-songwriter Avery Lynch has defined herself as a pop storytelling master. Dubbed a "happy girl filled with sad songs," she's penned emotionally resonant megahits including "To Love Someone Else" and "all i need (the distance song)," and most recently, she dropped her latest EP, Glad We Met.

The new project released on Sep. 5, consisting of nine introspective and vulnerable songs telling her true story of heartache, growth and eventually opening herself up to love yet again. Driven by her soft, airy vocals and striking piano melodies, it may be her most impactful collection of songs yet.

In November, Avery will also also hitting the road, performing four shows along along the West Coast with support from Tristan. Click HERE for ticket info, and continue reading to discover everything Avery shared about herself with us as our Woman Crush Wednesday.
