Dr. Lynn McGrath is featured in multiple videos. Check out this particular video, to see an appearance of our Social Media Coordinator, Michael Jones!

I wanted to take a moment and share this new video with you. I’ve been working hard this summer on getting better with using my home recording studio since most live performances have been cancelled for the time being. This is my first project with some of the new updates I’ve made to my studio. I hope you enjoy it!
