Bio
Leslie Carey is a producer/writer and multi-instrumentalist. Her leaps from sincerity to satire are as alarmingly brilliant as her leaps from driving power pop to bluegrass infused ballads.
"Her lyrics come from the heart of poet--keen observation and subtle grace full of rhythmic and melodic twists and turns, always getting to the heart of the human condition."
