With her most recent release, “Natural Disaster,” Leigh has introduced a unique blend of her strong writer roots with an alternative twist, while her earlier singles carry a country core reminiscent of early Taylor Swift.

“World-schooled” through high school, living in 11 different countries, Leigh has been composing her own songs since the age of 11.

“I’ve grown up listening to country music radio,” she shares. “Country music has always had a magical gift for telling stories, which I admire immensely and I have always connected with.”

Leigh’s music is a testament to her unwavering passion for crafting authentic and heartfelt lyrics. She strives to weave tales of life and love through her music, with a deep desire to touch hearts one song at a time.

“What I love about performing live in particular is seeing how my lyrics touch the hearts of the individuals in the audience,” she shares.

“When you see it in their eyes that they know what you’re singing about because they too have lived it – it’s a wild feeling and such an honor to share in that experience.”

Leigh’s music career has seen many milestones, including being a semi-finalist in the Road to The Mainstage competition, where she performed at the world famous Big Valley Jamboree in Camrose, Alberta. She has also graced the stage at Canada’s Wild Outdoor Expo in Stony Plain, Alberta, leaving audiences captivated with her powerful performances.
