Sonia Leigh
welcomed
Sonia Leigh,
the unapologetic rocker chick of modern day country music, to Nashville on June 26.
Jimmy
Buffett's Margaritaville played host to the high-energy songstress as well as a crowd filled with anticipation and armed
with beach balls. It wasn't long before Leigh belted out some raspy lyrics and the hammering of drums joined in. The crowd
couldn't resist the energy, relentlessly spiking beach balls and joyously singing along. But the flurry of flying balls was
no problem for Leigh and her band as they turned the frenzy into a game of musical kickball with swift kicks and swats from
their guitar heads. Leigh continued to nod her head in rhythm with the escalating energy of the music, and flipping the hair
out of her eyes, lifted her hand in the air with a guitar pick tightly wedged between her fingers. The crowd followed, magnetically
allowing their hands float above their heads. Leigh and her band might be new to the scene, but they certainly know how to
have fun, let loose and rock out.
