“Voices like Leslie’s can get away with almost anything. Along with being a great songwriter, this leaves her with few if any peers.” Jakob Dylan, Wallflowers frontman
With her enchanted voice and evocative songwriting, Grammy-nominated Leslie Mendelson has won the hearts and minds of both an adoring fanbase and fellow artists alike. No less than Jackson Browne has declared, “Leslie’s melodies are timeless. They reach me way back in my youth somewhere. I hear traces of Burt Bacharach and Carole King, and hooks and passages that remind me of the pop songs I grew up hearing on the radio.”
In her fourth studio album, “After The Party”, Mendelson crafts a distinctive folk-rock, pop-Americana flavor, evoking the sounds of Laurel Canyon, but with the downtown grit and sharp wit of Brooklyn, the city she has called home for over two decades now.
