Leah Marlene is a nineteen-year-old songwriter, artist and producer from Normal, Illinois. She was born in Toronto, Canada and moved to Illinois at a young age with her family. Leah grew up in a house full of music and guitars as her father, Derry Grehan, is a songwriter and lead guitarist with the Canadian band, Honeymoon Suite. He taught her how to play guitar and piano, and passed along his passion for songwriting. She began singing and writing her own songs at a very young age and never looked back!
Since the age of 10, Leah has been performing live all over Illinois, Nashville and Canada. For most of her high school years, Leah made regular trips from Illinois to Nashville for songwriting, recording and performing. Now a junior in college, she gleefully calls Nashville her home as she is pursuing a degree in songwriting at Belmont University!
Leah has a unique, engaging voice and a songwriting style that combines elements of pop, soul, funk, jazz, rock, Americana and more. She has been releasing original music since she was 13 years old and most recently released her self-produced album titled “The Space Between.” She is now producing songs with and for many other artists outside of herself.
Leah is a lover of people and her greatest hope is that her music may meet you exactly where you’re at with great warmth and compassion
