Madeline Leman

Madeline Leman is a kindred of the women of the 1960s and 70s. Her blend of alt-folk, rock’n’roll and country balances power and whimsy creating a sound that is simultaneously classic and refreshingly unique. Madeline sings in protest, love and reverence for the natural world; her songs rooted in melody and storytelling. In 2018 she released her first single ‘Diva With The Fever Of Change’ which RRR called a 'year defining song.’ In 2019 she released her debut album ‘Nobody’s Fool,’ which had singles added to rotation on ABC country radio, who called it ‘an important release’. The band played a showcase at the 2019 Australian Music Week conference as well as Out On The Weekend and Reservoir Stomp Festival. In May 2021 the band followed up with the single ‘This is Living’, a 60s dream pop track that debuted at number 1 on the AMRAP metro charts and was launched in front of a sold out crowd at The John Curtin Hotel in Melbourne. Madeline will release her sophomore album in 2025. “With so many genres, oeuvres and originality, her band fitted like a glove, with beautiful harmonies vibrant, tight and innovative, together they made the complete package."
