Leeann Atherton album coverLady Liberty demonstrates Leeann Atherton's broad ranging voice and frames the personal lyrics of songwriter Mike Stevenson on this album. It received rave reviews in Europe before it was even released in the U.S. Here's an example from Eddie Russell of Country Eastern West: "I love this CD. It will be airing on my shows. Leeann has a strong, smooth and distinctive voice and radio friendly production, well written songs by Michael and lots of variety." Released in 1999, Lady Liberty is a laid back roots rock album that stands up to many repeated playings and never loses its freshness.
Leeann Atherton has been in Austin ever since she came here on vacation about 12 years ago. Her warm voice, full of southern charm, is a perfect match for the songs of Mike Stevenson.
