Howdy all! I will be touring the east coast in the month of July! I will be playing NYC at the Living Room on July 16th and hope to see many of you there. Check out my tour page for more details and to find out when I am coming to a town near you. This is also the last month of the nine month long Breaking Southern Ground tour with the Zac Brown Band. I am sad to see it end but we have plenty to be excited about in the future. Also, be sure to stop by my merch table to write a letter to a soldier and receive a FREE Southern Ground compilation CD! Thanks to everyone that has participated in Letters for Lyrics and helping us try to reach our goal of 1 millions letters. We are currently at approximately 244,000 letters sent to soldiers!

Hello everyone!
I am currently with Nic Cowan, Zac Brown and Barry Waldrep headed to Iowa for another cluster of Breaking Southern Ground shows. I hope this update finds you all happy and well! It has been a bit since I last touched base and I wanted to say thank you to everyone who came out and showed their support during the “Gettin Dirty” tour. It was a blast! It was so exciting to end the tour in Pensacola with Kristy Lee one of my all time favorite artists! I wanted to also say thank you to all the folks who came out and brought the house DOWN in Atlanta at the 99x Unplugged in the Park show! It always amazes me to see you all singing along and dancing! Thank you also for all of your votes at 94.9 the bull to help keep My Name is Money in rotation on back yard country. I can’t express enough gratitude for your continued support through the years. It is my pleasure and honor to get to play music for all of you and I plan on doing so for the rest of my life. Keep checking back for Tour dates and updates from the road. There is so much brewing and I cannot wait to share my new record with you guys! Make sure you drop by a Dodge Ram dealership to write a letter to a troop to recieve your free Southern Ground compilation with 3 tracks from my new record and tracks by ZBB, Levi Lowrey, and Nic Cowan.
Thanks again and keep safe,
Sonia Leigh
