Ep 301-Lea Anderson: LIVE OUT LOUD - a podcast by Ayana Major Bey

On this episode I am joined by Singer/Songwriter and performing artist Lea Anderson. Born in Washington DC, raised in South Carolina now residing in New York, Lea’s goal is to conquer the music industry note after note. Categorized as R&B SOUL, it is without a doubt that Lea Anderson has what the music industry has been waiting for. Through her own rhythm and blues, Lea aims to create an intimate connection between herself and anyone who has come in contact with her fluid soprano sound. Versatile, she can be acoustic, with a piano, supplemented with tracks, or with her four piece band. No matter the set up, Lea  is always equipped with a flute, which was handed down by her Mother. Lea is a member of Actors Equity Association, and some of her favorite past performances include HAIR, Little Shop of Horrors, Ragtime and Smokey Joe's Cafe. Now a staple of New York’s live music scene, Lea has played venues from The Apollo, Rockwood Music Hall, Joe’s Pub at the Public Theatre, The Duplex, Duane Park, as well as the Make Music NYC just to name a few. In March 2019, Lea independently released her first album entitled (Pronounced Lee Deluxe). Her LP was recorded and mastered by Grammy nominated and recipient of 16 Billboard Awards, D-Moet. Lea is also a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, INC. We discuss how growing up in the 90’s taught us we can do anything, taking this time during a pandemic to heal through the arts, and how artists should take their heads out of the sand and live full lives outside of their craft.
