Obsessed With The West was released on May 6, 2022. And collaboration with the kings of modern-day western swing, Asleep at the Wheel. “I’ve been obsessed with western swing music since I was a kid and it’s always been an influence, ”Leigh explains. “My records in the past have ranged from bluegrass to country music to folk, but I’d never fully explored swing until now.” Obsessed with the West is a showcase not just for Asleep at the Wheel or Bob Wills fans, but for anyone who’s ever curled up with Lefty Frizzell, Billie Holiday, Willie Nelson or even Louis Armstrong. Obsessed with the West is a treat for the ears and the heart, a damn fine collection of original songs, top-flight instrumentalists, and the vibrant, still evolving artistry of Brennen Leigh.
