Lecia – Fly

Australia? Decent music? Australia’s the HOME of decent music! As proven here today by Lecia, my second favourite guitarist behind Julz Parker. I actually found her through Julz who probably played with her at some point; I heard this one song Fly and went and bought the whole EP off the back of it. If you like any of this, I suggest you do the same as it’s only $10 from CD Baby. But first I feel I must convince ye…

Lecia plays a kinda funky country gothic rock, and there’s not a song on the EP (her only release to date) that I don’t love. Bear with Fly for the first couple minutes, it goes on a bit but picks right up halfway through, and starts sounding like the Manics crossed with a decent singer (sorry James-Dean). If that doesn’t convince you, below is some more of her performance skills; a montage of clips from various shows. Which is even better when you consider that apparently the rest of the band only learnt the tunes the day before or something, and Lecia seems to thing it’s not so great :oO Please watch, it don’t last long, then go comment on her MyFace explaining how wrong she is to doubt her own skills. And finally, emigrate to Oz for some gigs around Queensland later this month.
