Every once in a while an artist comes along who seems to instantly capture the imagination of all who hear them. In a very short time Leeland has managed to impact a great number of artists, retailers, radio programmers and members of the media with their fresh sound and impactful lyrics.

Hailing from Texas, Leeland is a five-piece band fronted by and named for Leeland Moring, a 17-year-old gifted songwriter, worship leader and charismatic performer who immediately draws listeners in with a passionate transparency that is rare among artists of any age. The premier album, Sound of Melodies, is already receiving critical acclaim as one of the year's best debuts.

“Leeland is the best thing I have heard in a long long time. I can't stop singing the songs in my head. Great melodies...great band......great voice. Bottom line....IT WORKS!!!" - Michael W. Smith

"So much talent and so much depth for such a young group. They will be a core artist for Christian CHR and Christian rock for years to come." - Kevin Peterson, Radio and Records

“If Leeland’s live show is any indication of the band’s promise, we’d better brace for big things.” - Tyler Clark, Relevant Magazine

"Leeland is one of those rare artists who is blessed with an amazing and pure talent and an equally inspiring heart after God." - Marc Byrd, Songwriter/Producer (Co-writer of “God of Wonders”)
