Evanescence Fans Will Love the Latest Album by Indie Artist Lee-Leet

Lee-Leet is an example of how independent artists can reach out to their audiences through the Internet, thus bypassing record labels. She’s brought to you by her fans from all over the world who financed her current European tour via SellaBand music website.

A Polish solo artist, Lee-Leet released her third album, “Leave it Behind,” in November. You can preview the album here.

Her music is a form of art rock, with progressive and avant-garde influences. In her lyrics, she talks about emotions, difficult relationships, love, spirituality, metaphysics, disappointment, hope and the quest for the intangible. Lee-Leet is for people who are seeking transcendence in art and who are interested in sharing the emotional experience it conveys.

She plays the piano, produces and publishes her own music. If your musical tastes include artists like Florence and the Machines, Evanescence, or Kate Bush, you will thoroughly enjoy listening to her.

Oh, and BTW, the title song made it to the No. 3 spot on the Polish rock charts at Antyradio in its first week. You can check out the video for the track here. As a result, Lee-Leet said in a press article that the era of major record labels is over, and the onset of a new era, in which independent artists reach out to their audience through the Internet, is happening presently.

Songs To Work Out To

I found this really unique album of songs to work out to that really gets me motivated.  It’s known as “Peak Performance Music”; a mix of high energy music, motivational messages and (something called) binaural beat technology – not sure what that is, but whatever it is, it works!  It’s great to start your day with, for working out, sports training, clearing your head or just a mood adjustment!

Each of the tracks deals with different life challenges – “Moving On” is about letting go of things or people that don’t serve you well anymore and “Ready for Takeoff” is about taking your life to the next level.  It’s really inspiring and for me, I want to keep listening so my workouts have gotten much longer!


I got hooked on these songs to work out to after getting the free download at http://www.SongsToWorkOutTo.com
