In the midst of endless touring, Leif found himself retreating to his lonely hotel rooms after shows and listening to Nick Drake’s \u003cem\u003ePink Moon\u003c\/em\u003e alone in the dark. His own songs didn’t sound right, and he felt the bright spots in his sets were the covers he’d end with: songs by Ray Charles or Townes Van Zandt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this deep blue mood, he booked a secret show at a Montreal dive bar, only playing covers with a band that rehearsed once. The experience led Leif to change his approach to songwriting: explore the ideas that came spontaneously to him, and let the songs shape themselves. Soon the songs came pouring out of him. This approach is what created the lush, freewheeling, and often devastating \u003cem\u003eTwin Solitude\u003c\/em\u003e, on Secret City Records.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLeif’s third album features 10 delicate and expansive original songs, with lyrics that pour out of this singer-songwriter that are often compared to Jeff Buckley. Leif’s words lay on a bed of elastic instrumentation full of piano, synthesizer, guitar, rich electric bass, and strings.
