Sonia Leigh’s musical abilities are boundless, effortlessly spanning country, rock, pop, and hip-hop. Her meticulously crafted lyrics tell stories that transcend genres, leaving listeners feeling engaged and empowered. 

Leigh catapulted onto the country music scene in 2011 with her major label debut, 1978 December, released under Zac Brown's Southern Ground Records. Her single, “My Name Is Money,” landed at #36 on the 2011 Billboard Hot 100 charts. Zac Brown Band’s Grammy Award-winning album Uncaged features two singles written by Leigh—“Goodbye In Her Eyes” and “Sweet Annie”—both of which reached #1 on the Billboard Country Airplay charts.

Musical fluidity has always been a catalyst for Sonia’s creativity. Her 2018 full-length release, Mad Hatter, showcased her co-production and engineering skills while seamlessly blending her versatile style. In 2020, she re-released her song “1978 December,” produced by Roger Taylor, drummer for the iconic rock band Queen, further highlighting her prowess on piano and her prolific songwriting abilities. Previous releases, King Without a Kingdom and Give You Love, dive deeper into her grunge-rock and pop influences.

In addition to writing chart-topping hits, Leigh’s music has been featured in video games, sports, films, and television shows. She has rapidly gained recognition in the sync licensing world and signed on as a songwriter with BMG in 2019. Leigh has toured and shared the stage with an impressive roster of artists, including Eric Church, Melissa Etheridge, Amos Lee, Zac Brown Band, Bones UK, Willie Nelson, Loretta Lynn, and Joan Jett.

Leigh’s energetic performances are packed with magnetic conviction, capable of both quieting a room and shaking the walls with her raw, raspy delivery. Currently, Leigh leads several projects that showcase her diverse styles, including the hip-hop/rock duo TYGR TYGR under her hip-hop alias ELYVN ELYVN, alongside Daphne Willis (Position Music). Additional projects include the lo-fi 90s hip-hop duo Indica Girlz and the mysterious grunge-pop project Rob The Man. Her hard-hitting 2023 single, “Thin Ice,” brims with pure rock-and-roll energy, encouraging listeners to break down barriers and realize their full potential. The track earned a spot on Apple Music’s New in Rock and Women Who Rock playlists.

In early 2024, Leigh’s release of “Beautiful Mess,” featuring Rob The Man, continued to showcase her rock-pop prowess. Produced by Nick Furlong and Colin Brittain, the track also features a striking guitar cameo by Carmen Vandenberg of Bones UK.

Leigh’s 2025 single, “Never Stopped,” taps into a Motown R&B vein reminiscent of Amy Winehouse and The Supremes. Her long-awaited full-length album, Songs About Ghosts, released on May 9, 2025, promises to captivate listeners by pulling at heartstrings while delivering a genre-blending experience. This project sees Leigh returning to her Country and Americana roots, tying together her diverse influences with a signature style that is uniquely her own.

This summer on July fourth, Sonia Leigh teams back up with Rob The Man on “Everything’s Numb”. A curveball away from her previous album release, Songs About Ghosts. She switches gears and jumps back in this time with a mellow summertime undertone. The laid back, modern 80’s pop rock track creates a tranquil ambiance with hints of reggae.
