Congratulations To The February Austin Music City Voter's Poll Winner, Ginger Leigh!
Wednesday, 03 March 2010 20:34
It’s easy to see why Ginger Leigh’s fans completely obliterated all the competition in the February voter’s poll. She deserved it. The Austin songbird’s popularity continues to skyrocket and her schedule gets busier by the day as her fan base grows to monstrous numbers. With appearances booked from Amarillo to Italy, she’s on a frenetic and exciting course to stardom that is truly fitting for an artist of her caliber.
Leigh brings a new dimension to the music business with her material, a total vocal warrior whose bawdy, soulful voice is seamless and relentless with no apparent boundaries or borders. She just doesn’t sing a song, she literally pulls the nails out of the stage floor with a powerful, hell bent delivery that is tempered with a silky sexiness in all the right places. The highest compliment she could be paid is that she sounds like no one, copies no one, and works a production on a record like a fine violin. If there is any one artist in Austin right now that would be considered capable of becoming a viable, bankable nationwide star, it would be Ginger Leigh. Hands down.

Austin, TX — When self-styled confessional singer-songwriter Elizabeth Wills of Austin takes the stage of La Grange’s The Bugle Boy on Saturday, February 13, for a show of folk-pop cuts from her new album, LOVE COMES HOME, she will be living a new concept in recording: an arrangement between artist and venue based on trust, giving back and paying forward, business, and the future of music and musicians’ careers.
Wills plays a CD Release Show at 8 p.m. on Valentine’s Eve in the intimate listening room called The Bugle Boy, 1051 N.
