  • While in ceremony with her, I felt transformed and led to very reflective places in my heart.

    Shana Pearlmutter

  • Leah combines traditional songs and blessings, her own original music and a passion for social justice in a way that immediately invited me into the prayer.

    Deborah Adelman

  • Leah has the gift of songwriting that is compelling and new, yet rooted in, motivated by, an earlier time, when the now nostalgic genre of the folk ballad Americana was in its innocence.
