Music Wednesday

This weeks band selection is Leeland.

This is a band that I am just starting to find out more about and I am becoming more and more a fan.

From Wikipedia: Leeland is an American Christian rock band from Baytown, Texas. The band was formed in 2004, although lead singer Leeland Mooring had been writing songs beforehand. Leeland is composed of Leeland Mooring (lead vocals, guitar), Jack Mooring (backing vocals, keyboard), Matt Campbell (guitar), Jake Holtz (bass) and Mike Smith (drums). The band's original line-up included Jeremiah Wood, but he left the band in late 2006, and was replaced by guitarist Matt Campbell in late spring of 2007. Leeland has released two studio albums, and has received a Grammy Award nomination and two Dove Award nominations for their debut album Sound of Melodies (2006).[4][5]
