With the new band Leon Creek, a new project from Los Angeles based singer/songwriter Chris Pierce, Matthew Stevens, and producer Erik Janson, a variety of influences converge to bring forth a new take on the traditional Americana/roots sound.
Ascending soul man Chris Pierce, who recently gained national prominence with his hit co-write “We Can Always Come Back To This,” that aired on multiple episodes of the #1 NBC primetime series This Is Us, brings stirring depth and power to his performances. This is evident in his Sunny War collaboration War & Pierce, and his phenomenal new full- length LP American Silence: a Bob Dylan-esque reflection of his realities as a Black man in the modern United States (featured on NPR Music All Songs Considered, Rolling Stone, SiriusXM).

For Leon Creek, Pierce’s vocal and blues harmonica prowess are showcased in a new light, combining with the finger- picking, bluegrass melodies of Matthew Stevens, who has previously recorded World and Cumbia inspired tracks with the likes of Ozomatli’s Asdru Sierra and rapper Thurz, resting perfectly on the vibrant and maximalist production talents of Erik Janson (of Wildling & Left Field Messiah fame).
     
This band of brothers have come together to reflect the broadening horizons of contemporary Americana/Country, Blues and Roots music, drawing from the influences from which the genres originated, while embracing eclectic and unexpected inspiration as well. Their debut single "Call it a Day" from the full length album Far From Broken is due out Spring 2021.
