Whether it’s solo on ukulele or with a full band & dancers,
her light shines through her positive attitude and willingness to be vulnerable on stage."
-Jessica Waffles; KXT 91.7

"Cowgirl Mermaid" Lorena Leigh hails from the Lone Star State, a singer-songwriter / producer who weaves elements of Shania Twain's country charm, Maggie Rogers' indie-folk allure, Alanis Morissette's raw emotion, and Spice Girls energy into her music. Upbeat and soulful, her whimsical underwater rodeo and high-energy live performances have captivated a growing fanbase. Rooted in a childhood love for country music, Lorena's skills are enriched by years of professional dance training with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and being part of the NYC surf scene in her early twenties. Her influences give rise to catchy hooks, aquatic lyric narratives, and pedal-popped ukulele melodies laced with positivity. Recent performance highlights include opening for Stevie Nicks & Little Big Town (Aspen Jazz Fest), Mountain Air Music Series (Ouray), Panther Island Pavilion (Forth Worth), official SXSW stage at the Container Bar (Austin), headlining at Downtown Cowtown, The Isis Theater (Fort Worth).
