Leah, who is still in her teens, possesses a voice and stage presence of an artist with far more experience.

Leah got her first guitar at age 15 and her family have always encouraged musical expression.

The road has not been easy but with hard work and a natural talent Leah is well on her way to becoming one of the most sought after artists in Northern Ireland in 2010.

In the last couple of years Leah has played the Ards International Guitar Festival and the Maiden City Festival to name but a few and has opened for artists such as Devon Sproule and Sarah McQuaid.

"Leah has quietly evolved into one of our most popular female artists. At the young age of 19 she has already 5 years of gigging experience under her Martin guitar strap," said Adele Ingram-Magee from One-A-Chord Music Promotions, who are running a series of live music events at the Hillside.
