Out of the Pacific Northwest, Toni Land, award-winning singer/songwriter is described as “surefooted in her travels between country and folk.” Land has earned comparisons to Sheryl Crow and Lucinda Williams. Her fourth CD, Lucky Cat, just released on Wondergirl Music, is bluegrass, country and rock and roll at it’s best! Fun, intelligent, and heart-warming, Lucky Cat unfurls like one of Land's captivating live performances: Full throttle at the start, dynamic in the middle, and intimate at the end. Her next cd has a planned release date for Fall 2005. The single from this cd, "I Never Knew" just won best song with the International Acoustic Music Awards and has been added to several compilation cds this year.

With homes in both The Pacific Northwest and Southern California, Land tours aggressively on the West Coast and has earned a reputation for her dynamic crowd-wowing live performances. As Greg Moore of Jam Magazine comments, “Toni raises the bar on what powerful performance should be.” She has played return engagements at many of the region's largest festivals, including the California Avocado Festival (100,000-plus attendees), The Daisychain Music Fair (55 top Northwest female acts), North by Northwest and Oregon's Bite of Portland. Land performs in concert with her full band as well as in more intimate settings as a solo, duo, or trio.

Since the year 2000 release of her last CD, Deep In Diamonds, Land has earned critical acclaim nationally and internationally. The cut "Good For Me" landed at #4 on MP3.com's Triple A Chart out of millions of songs. Land was also voted in the “Top Ten Artists” poll for 2002 by Radio 98.6 listeners in Berlin, and was invited to showcase for the Los Angeles, San Francisco & Seattle USA Songwriters Competition “Circle of Songs”.

Land is a stellar songwriter and has earned publishing and production deals throughout her career. The new album, Lucky Cat boasts a lush new version of the title cut from her first CD, "Chocolate Cake for Breakfast" which earned her a Nashville publishing deal. Before this, “Have You Ever Seen Your Real Love”, the single from this same album, landed on the Gavin Top 40 Adult/Contemporary Chart and earned Land a national distribution deal. Land has been awarded Best Songwriter by the International Acoustic Music Awards as well as the Portland Songwriter Association. She currently holds the respected role as Mentor for the Portland Songwriter Association.
