New album Far From Broken Out Now

 
 

With the new band Leon Creek featuring Los Angeles based singer/songwriter Chris Pierce, Matthew Stevens, and producer Erik Janson, a variety of influences converge to bring forth a new take on the traditional Americana/roots sound.

In Leon Creek, soul man Chris Pierce’s vocal and blues harmonica prowess are showcased in a new light, combining with the finger- picking, bluegrass melodies of Matthew Stevens, who has previously recorded World and Cumbia inspired tracks with the likes of Ozomatli’s Asdru Sierra and rapper Thurz, resting perfectly on the vibrant and maximalist production talents of Erik Janson (of Wildling & Left Field Messiah).

This band of brothers have come together to reflect the broadening horizons of contemporary Americana/Country, Blues and Roots music, drawing from the influences from which the genres originated, while embracing eclectic and unexpected inspiration as well. Leon Creek’s debut full length album Far From Broken is scheduled for release September 21, 2021 and has received early support and airplay on SIRIUSXM, Los Angeles’s 88.5 KCSN and Today’s Top Tune on 89.9 KCRW, with press features from The Bluegrass Situation, American Songwriter and more.
