As soon as you hear Sue Leonard's voice on her new EP, Leonardville (from Race Records), you know the lady means business. This Hamilton-born singer/songwriter can rock you as well as soothe you.
Everything starts with an incredible bang thanks to Bye Baby, the high-energy opening track. What follows is a wonderful mix of pop, rock and soul. After Sue is done shaking your body, she soothes your soul with two beautiful lighter tunes (Quietude and Angel).
On most of the tracks, the singer is expertly backed by Bill Dillon on guitars and bass, Dave King on Drums, and Georgie Fab (Ronnie and the Rockets) on guitar. Jesse O'Brien plays piano on a track as well. The whole gang do a superb job.
The EP is available to download on her website.
