About Me

-- CDBABY LINK for LEAH MORGAN: Songs From a Silent Film, Volume 1 --
The Washington Post raves, "The combination of Leah Morgan's sweet vocals, cello, piano and guitar creates the kind of music made to listen to in bed for hours on a rainy day. Whether you have a recently broken heart or simply want to mellow out, her chorus of echoing vocals hits the spot". Originally from northern Virginia, Leah has performed all over the country, appearing at legendary venues including the Bitter End, the Barns of Wolf Trap, the Kennedy Center Millennium Stage, and the Hotel Café. This award-winning singer/songwriter, deftly combining pop, soul, classical, and folk influences, has been compared to the likes of Ben Folds, Aimee Mann, and Suzanne Vega. Leah's debut CD, Zero Dollars Spent, now in its second pressing, is currently on rotation at over 200 college radio stations nationwide after reaching the 10 top-selling albums at AwareStore, and being selected The Washington Post 'Top Pick' and among the "Best Mid-Atlantic Releases of 2003" by Left Off the Dial. Her 2nd release, Songs From a Silent Film, Volume 1, was released in April of 2006.You'll definitely want to see her now so you can say you were a fan before she got huge. www.leahmorgan.com
