This week we talked to Leah of New York based indie rock band, OK Cowgirl. Her skills of observation have evolved with her practice of yoga, in tune with her body as well as her notes app. She started playing piano at age 5 but found her passion for songwriting in her teens focusing on storytelling while her band focuses on instrumentation. Their most recent release “Couldn't Save Us From My Gut” was written over the course of many years reflecting on heartbreak and empowering decisions. Since finishing this project her writing has evolved, and we’re excited to hear those changes in new music in the future!
