Singer Dariann Leigh stops by the show to talk about leaving her small town and moving to Nashville to follow her musical dream and more.
******
Dariann Leigh is infatuating; all things to all people.
She is effervescent yet reserved, accessible and unobtainable, red carpet glam and camo in a tree stand. Combining big-city beauty with small-town humility, Dariann may take on many appearances, but one thing is for sure – she is resilient and wholeheartedly herself, making her a role model for the upcoming generation.
From her one-stop town in Karlstad, MN (Population 713), Dariann captured the star power of the original women of country music from lyrics bleeding through static-filled radios and scratched CDs; even in the middle of nowhere, those melodies set the scene for a dream that would ultimately define the course of her entire life. She doesn’t just want to make music, she wants to write the soundtrack for hairbrush singers, dashboard drummers, and air guitar players everywhere.
“As a kid,” says Leigh, “I remember closing my eyes, plugging my headphones in, and listening to tracks that ended up being the theme songs to my daydreams. I want to be that artist for someone else.”
She has opened for:
BIG N RICH – JOE NICHOLS
CRAIG MORGAN – CHRIS CAGLE
MATT STELL – MACKENZIE PORTER
