Album Notes

It's not every day that a married mother of two toddlers decides to learn guitar and form a band. Especially when she's 35 and brokers mortgages for a living. Today is that day. Introducing Leigh Ann Yost.

Her songs can't escape her existence: loves gained, loves lost, lives lived and roads crossed. Each song it's own, her less-is-more approach to song writing results in the perfect marriage between melodies, catchy hooks, and memorable lyrics. Getting by with a little help from her friends doesn't hurt either. She is a lucky girl.

"'Basic Needs' by Leigh Ann Yost was an immediate add to our playlist--it blew me away! Excellent production, superb songwriting and musicianship and deliriously good vocals. This album is a must have!" - Laura Shine, WFPK Radio Louisville

"... a fine new singer/songwriter with a beautiful voice." - Tim Krekel (composer of songs covered by Patty Loveless, Martina McBride, Alan Jackson and many others)

"... magnificent new record." - Michael Young, WFPK Radio Louisville, host of "Roots n' Boots"
