Matt Campbell + Austin Miller Live at Leon

About Matt Campbell:

Recently named a songwriter "you need to hear" by American Songwriter magazine, Matt Campbell returns to Leon armed with a new collection of music in support of his new record: Live at the Old Town School of Folk Music recorded live at Chicago's venerable Old Town School of Folk Music, recorded and produced by Peter Andreadis.

Matt Campbell's affinity for rich imagery and melody combined with his stripped down sound and his distinct voice and lyrics will once again leave you amazed. Matt's songs embrace old-country, folk ballads, gospel and protest and come straight from his experiences travelling across America on train cars, red-eye flights, along empty highways and across vast expanses. Matt Campbell is a man who knows the back alleys of all of the good speakeasies, the thump of the wood on an old dance hall floor, and the relaxing comfort of all of the front porches across America.

About Austin Miller:

Austin Miller isn't your typical "cabin in the woods" singer-songwriter. As a Floridian, the palm trees and blistering heat are his home. But this Orlando native's laid back and rustic narratives take you far from the beaches. Tales of young hearts and world-weary souls come to life in his songs. Austin has spent the better part of the last three years on the road, playing everywhere from small town dive bars, to The House of Blues Chicago, and everything in between. His self-released albums and performances have earned praise from publications and listeners across the country. "More Than One Way" is an album featuring 10 of his newest songs, released in June 2013, described as "Lush as a full moon on the horizon line."

Leon gallery is proud to have these two hero's playing once again in our gallery. Please join us at 8pm on Friday, August 15th to hear these two American legends together for the first time.
