About
Leah Blevins, a captivating force in music hailing from Sandy Hook, Kentucky, seamlessly blends vintage charm with a contemporary groove.
Out of the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains of eastern Kentucky, Leah Blevins makes her stunning Easy Eye Sound debut with her sophomore album All Dressed Up. Produced by Dan Auerbach and recorded in Nashville, the album seamlessly blends Blevins’ timeless vocals and songwriting with the enchanting spirit of the South and contemporary storytelling.
All Dressed Up grew out of this idea: If you face what’s hard, you can grow stronger and truer. Whether the steel-steeped seeking of “Hey God,” which extols “Jezebel or Jericho, you point me, that’s where I’ll go,” the minor keyed reassurance of “Leave It Up To Me,” and the cautionary glittering pop of “Be Careful Throwing Stones”, Blevins moves through the emotional gears with an ease that matches her willingness to pull back the layers. The smoky acoustic title track stares down a heartache, offering unabashed pain with a real talk chaser as it evokes classic Bobbie Gentry swelter.
Her transparency and unfiltered feelings drew Nashville’s greatest genre-spanning writers – Daniel Tashian (Kacey Musgraves, Leon Bridges), Pat McLaughlin (John Prine, Bonnie Raitt, Alan Jackson), Paul Overstreet (two-time GRAMMY, Country Music Association and Academy of Country Music Song of the Year winner) – to join Blevins and Auerbach in excavating the realm of who she is, what she believes and wants to share.
