LEILA JANE

Leila Jane is a Dublin based recording artist with roots in London and Donegal. While possessing a voice that has been described as ‘’somewhere between Janis Joplin and Sandy Denny,’’ her music is an interpretation of the surreal paradoxical reality that the haunted soul often finds itself in. The raw and honest expression found in her work is a testament to her affinity with blues music.
