"Metal e Violino formam o ótimo single 'Bad Horsie' da banda The Violution (Steve Vai Cover). Confira."
"Get to know this sound, which brings the symphony of the violin played in a majestic, powerful and heavy way like the sound of a guitar ... JLynn's music is a great and powerful tool ... The violin is played with all the musical power, as if the instrument were a metal guitar ... a magnificent and splendid reinterpretation, in which we can feel each note expressing the musical sensitivity.”
Las Vegas Review Journal
"A night with Aerosmith at rock's top perch"
"“I Don’t want to Miss a Thing” stars a Vegas string section. Jennifer Lynn (or, Jennifer “Vio” Lynn, as I call her) just looked over but dang I don’t think she saw me. I am shouting for a solo."
Audacy
"Aerosmith share backstage "Dream On" jam with all-female string quartet"

"JOURNEY Rocks with Orchestra at Resorts World"
"Journey—Neal Schon (guitar), Jonathan Cain (keyboards, rhythm guitar, harmonica, vocals), Deen J. Castronovo (drums, vocals), Arnel Pineda (lead vocals), Jason Derlatka (keyboards, vocals), and Todd Jensen (bass, vocals)—is being accompanied by Las Vegas’ own Violution Orchestra, led by concertmaster Jennifer Lynn ... the result was so good ... truly memorable."

"Resorts World Audience Welcomes Journey, Orchestra"
"Backed by the Violution Orchestra ... Journey mastered a set of 20 songs that had the sold-out audience standing, singing and swaying throughout most of the show."

"Journey's Neal Schon Eager for More Shows"
"The musicians layering Journey’s hard-rocking sound is dubbed The Violution Orchestra. The band is the creation of the fine Vegas violinist Jennifer Lynn (who contracted all the players) and producer/musician Patrick Caccia."
