When Kelly Willis, Melissa Carper and Brennen Leigh – three accomplished singer-songwriters who have forged unique lanes in country music – joined forces, there was no more fitting moniker than Wonder Women of Country.

After serendipitously sharing bills several times, Willis approached Leigh and Carper in late 2021 about teaming up. Wanting more than a standard songwriter-in-the-round, the three learned each other’s songs for a more integrated, band approach. Those first shows were so well-received they decided to continue.

With Leigh on lead guitar and mandolin, Carper on upright bass, and Willis on rhythm guitar, the trio supports each other’s original material with beautiful three-part harmonies – individual superpowers made stronger together.

BRENNEN LEIGH – “Brennen will carry the torch for REAL American music for her generation,” says Ray Benson. Her upcoming release Obsessed With The West (May 6th) is, in her words, “my love note to Western Swing.”

KELLY WILLIS – “There’s no point in being nostalgic for the generic delineations of the past. We are in the present. That’s where Kelly Willis lives, and it’s there that she sings, as keenly and movingly as any singer in the country or pop or rock present.” – No Depression

MELISSA CARPER – “Melissa is one of the greatest classic golden era country singers and composers of this generation,” says Saving Country Music. Her recent release Daddy’s Country Gold features 12 originals spanning country, western swing and jazz.
