“…a letter perfect blend of folk and blues, one of the best I’ve ever heard”.
Mark S. Tucker (The Folk & Acoustic Music Exchange, U.S.A)

A laid-back yet intense musical force is born when authenticity meets refined talent. Leigh Sloggett’s earthy song writing and commanding style extend beyond the diverse foundations of Blues. Evocative timbres and a soulful touch are brought together by searing roots guitar and lap slide and driven by the rhythm section of Chris Riseley on double bass and Matt Crump on drums.

Leigh released his fourth ‘Wait for the Change’ in October 2022 which went on to reach no.10 on the Australian Blues and Roots charts. His third album ‘More Than I Need’ released in 2012 reach no.8. He has toured internationally and has performed consistently over almost two decades building a reputation as a unique song writing and guitarist.

“Leigh Sloggett’s album “More Than I Need” is a masterpiece of brilliant songwriting and searing roots guitar and not to be missed.”
Salty Dog (Presenter of Salty Blues and Roots)

‘Leigh Sloggett’s interpretation of the blues is sheer, down tempo class. Devastatingly emotive’
Tim Clarke (The Chandelier Room)

“The Leigh Sloggett Trio bring a new and soulful sound to the live blues and roots scene- great songs, great grooves!”
Nick Charles – Multi-award winning guitarist & music writer

“You WILL be enchanted.”
Alex Legg, (Musician and booker for Burrinja Cafe)
