Fresh new updates in her latest blog!

We love you from the bottom of our hearts!

London:
Thanks to The Zarrs and The Velvateens for showing us a bitching good time in the UK! London was such a blast! I am including some pictures of my time there. What an incredible honor to play the 100 Club! All the legends have played there – from the Stones to Paul McCartney. Also Amy Winehouse played her last show in London there as well. We were so surprised to see how many people turned up and rocked out with us! I was so very proud of my band and how well they played. It felt good to have them there with me. We were able to share a special dream come true together. I really got emotional as my American fans know I tend to do. We had people drive 100s of miles to catch the show! Blew my mind! Thank you for the warm welcome London! (Full London photo gallery at the end!)

‘Bar’ Video:
I am excited to announce the ‘Bar’ video is spinning on CMT! Check it out to see if you are IN it!
Please help us out by going to www.CMT.com to support the video.

Our first show back in the USA:
The boys and I had the pleasure of playing at one of our favorite Atlanta annual events, 500 Songs for Kids, on May 7th at Smith’s Olde Bar. Check out the video clip of us playing “Born To Run” by our Hero Bruce Springsteen. We had a blast and hope that we helped raise some money for such a wonderful foundation. Thanks to Josh Rifkind for having us! We love the hell out of that wonderful crazy guy! Thanks to our talented friend Jolie Kimmel for taking the video for us at 500 Songs for Kids. She has taken wonderful pictures and documented a lot of our shows, as well as Zac Brown shows, through out the years. If you’re looking for a great photographer check out her website here.

Back on the road again:
Now after some much needed time off we are itching to head back out on the road with Uncle Kracker and Ty Stone. Check out dates and please spread the word and come see us! We only have a couple more weeks left on the Uncle Kracker hometown tour and we will surely miss the friends we’ve made in them.

Thanks to our Fam-O-Leigh and street team for helping us spread the word about the shows. Thanks to all of you for showing up and giving us your love and support! See you on the road!

Much love,

Sonia Leigh and The Boys
