About Leanna Crawford (https://www.leannacrawford.com):
For the past two and half years, singer-songwriter Leanna Crawford has been writing, touring, and performing with some of the biggest names in the Christian music industry. She’s gained more experience than many artists do in a decade, and while her latest EP certainly displays the vocal and songwriting talent of a rising star in CCM, her grounded and honest lyrics make her feel more friend and confidante than star, more approachable than untouchable.
Her sophomore self-titled EP set to release spring 2020 certainly accomplishes this. With songs that speak honestly about doubt and insecurity as well as the hope Christ offers in our darkest moments, Crawford’s listeners will find solace in her kind and wise words, while tapping their feet along to contagious, pop-inspired beats.
Leanna was nominated as Female Artist of the Year for the 2021 K-LOVE Fan Awards. Her single “Truth I’m Standing On” was a Top 30 song on the Billboard Christian Airplay chart. The latest single "Mean Girls" reached Top 20 on the Billboard Christian Airplay chart.
Crawford’s career began to take off when she met GRAMMY®-nominated and Dove-award winning recording artist Matthew West at a songwriting conference before her junior year of college. West saw Crawford perform at an open mic and asked for her demo. Soon after, the Washington-state native flew to Nashville to co-write with West, which led to a publishing deal and her first EP, 2018’s Crazy Beautiful You. Crawford is also the first artist to sign with West’s new record label Story House Music, a joint venture with Provident Label Group.
While Crawford graduated with a degree in music business, she touts the past couple of years with tremendous growth, both personally and professionally. “I feel like I’ve been in school for the last couple of years without even realizing it,” says Crawford. Her “education” has included songwriting sessions with Matthew West and his longtime collaborator A.J. Pruis, who produced the self-titled collection, relocating permanently to Nashville, and touring with well-known Christian artists such as West, Michael W. Smith, Tenth Avenue North, and others. She credits the depth and honesty of this new EP to the ways she has grown and changed in these years.
“I know more of who I am in Christ, and I know more of what I want to say, and I’m definitely more confident about those things,” she explains.
The EP’s first single, which drops February 7, touches on this idea of identity and knowing who we are in Christ. Although the track is titled “Funeral,” its beat and lyrics are anything but somber—an intentional musical decision, considering what the “funeral” is for. As the chorus goes, So, I’m throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me / I’m throwing a funeral, funeral for who I used to be / The new has come, the old has gone / Praise the Lord I’m moving on.
Tracks like the grippingly honest “Mean Girls” that, along with most songs on the album, she co-wrote with West and Pruis will resonate with any girl, or woman, who has ever been called a name or made fun of, especially for her appearance. The first verse opens with, Mean girls don’t remember what they said / Well it’s funny because I can’t seem to forget.
Crawford’s voice throughout the EP is empathetic with listeners and unafraid to broach difficult topics, proving her maturity as an artist. The powerful ballad “Truth I’m Standing On” speaks directly to the intersection of doubt and faith, despair and hope: I’ve had my share of doubt / But never more than right now / I’m wondering, ‘Where are you?’ / Here on the edge of fall-apart / Somehow your promises find my troubled heart.
Perhaps her growth over the last few years, her solidified identity in Christ, and her confidence in her message can be summed up by a lyric in the track “Uncool,” which she says captures a lot of the heart of this EP: If it’s uncool to say that I love Jesus / If it’s uncool to sing about my freedom / Then I’m cool / Being uncool.
Although Crawford’s popularity would prove she is anything but uncool, she is a refreshingly honest voice in a culture and generation that often prizes the social-media perfect image over authenticity—something she hopes to be known for not only as her career begins, but as it continues.
