March 20, 2007
- Just to let you guys know, "Farewell Ghost Town" is selling great and getting rave reviews.
It's always nice to see great albums succeed.
Pick it up!

Here's just a few quotes:

"The songs are tuneful, accessible and direct. Bar-room blues, lonesome ballads and barn-rockin' stompers all coexist in an album that's charming not only for its strong songwriting, but also in its unassuming approach."

Pras Rajagopalan, Chart Magazine

"He’s managed to revive the appealing elements of Bob Dylan and Elvis Costello that were surely disappearing....Leger delivers folk rock in an old fashioned, albeit not dated style."

Andrew Seale, Spill Magazine

"There's something about Leger that makes it all seem effortless......

With lots of good acts coming out of North America nowadays, here's another to add to the collection."

Russell Barker, UK Press

Check for a PRESS page with all the reviews from Leger's 2 albums, interviews and articles.
