Biography
Leigh Sloggett is a Melbourne based musician/singer-songwriter who performs original acoustic blues, folk and roots music.
Leigh took up guitar at the age of twelve but it wasn't until his mid thirties that he seriously started writing songs, having returned to Australia after living overseas for many years.
Since 2002, Leigh has performed at many different venues and festivals around Melbourne, and has built a reputation for originality and his tasteful performances on acoustic lap-slide.
In April 2006 he released his debut CD 'Sliding To Your Destiny' which has been receiving air play on community radio around Australia as well as on several stations in France, Belgium, Canada and USA.
Leigh is now proud to have released his second full length album titled ‘Looking For the Clues’. This all acoustic album features the wonderful talents of Liz Frencham on double bass and backing vocals, as well as Mark Blanch and Thom Moore on drums and percussion, Stax on didgeridoo and Gretchen Anderson on violin. It was mixed by Ray Luckhurst and mastered at Dex Mastering by Jonathan Z.
