Every now and then, an artist comes along with an intrinsic musical style so diverse, that even the most stringent of critics would struggle to pigeonhole.
Perhaps it is her intriguing line of Indigenous Australian, Irish and Italian descent, or her distinctive take on folk/country, earning her national festival bookings such as Woodford,
St Kilda Festival and the Bluesfest to name a few. Whichever way you look at it, Leah Flanagan's music is certainly making an impression.
A storyteller at heart and a multi-instrumentalist by nature, Flanagan moves between guitar, ukulele and piano, specialising in personal narratives that take flight with dry evocative imagery, vocal swoops and musical pyrotechnics.
