About Lydia

Lydia began her musical career at age 8 by learning to play the piano using a book and cassette program. She became interested in playing the harp after hearing a harpist play at a local mall. Using her piano knowledge and a self-teaching harp video and book, she learned to play the harp. Lydia is grateful to God for gifting her with this talent.

God has blessed Lydia with many opportunities. In 2002, He provided a way for her to record a Christmas CD, entitled, “Christmas Classics on the Harp”. After being featured on the front page of the Accent section in the Columbus Dispatch, close to 500 copies were sold that Christmas season. In 2002 her second CD, "Peaceful Harp" was made and in 2009 she recorded the third, "Praise and Worship on the Harp". She has had the opportunity to play at churches, weddings, corporate events, nursing homes, and other special gatherings. Also, she has been recorded as part of a television commercial for a nursing/rehab center.

Lydia currently lives in Columbus, Ohio with her husband John. Lydia enjoys playing the harp and teaching piano and harp lessons. John also works from home building custom furniture, restoring antiques, and repairing furniture. You can view his work here: John T. Haywood Custom Furniture
