Leighton Bain

Starting off as a natural songwriter, this project began from the need to be heard. It has become an opportunity to affect other people. Leighton has always considered the intent listener, who listens closely to the musical changes and nuances that come in considering every bit of each song. People can appreciate an effective combination of lyric and melody, and in trying to create a harmony between thoughts and emotions, Leighton aims to create a sound which is both honest and memorable. Some of Leighton's Influences include Hayden, Mark Kozalek and Elliott Smith.
Most recently Leighton has finished "Oh Alaska!". A 7 song EP funded by FACTOR and Ontario Arts Council grants. Leighton recorded the album at The Drawing Room Studios in Windsor with the help of producer/engineer/all around good guy - Joel Bruyere.
