Singer-songwriter Odie Leigh presents her thoughtful new single “Already (On My Mind)” » LIVING LIFE FEARLESS

Born in New Orleans, based in Detroit Singer-songwriter Odie Leigh has just released her latest single and video for “Already (On My Mind)” on all platforms.

“‘Already (On My Mind)’ is a reflection on the beginning of a relationship and the confusion that comes with it. I wanted the verses and the chorus to almost feel like different songs,” says Odie Leigh. “We kept the verses simple and driving to express the groundedness and sense of security you feel when you’re with another person, and made the choruses lofty and lively to capture the feeling of increasing uncertainty that comes with a new relationship.

“I also tried to sneak as much trumpet into this album as possible. There are a few songs where we added trumpet but then took it out, and thankfully this isn’t one of them. I knew from the start that I wanted this track to feel full, fun and inviting, and I think we achieved exactly that.”

Their debut album “Carrier Pigeon”, released last week, is now available on all major streaming platforms.

At Carrier pigeonsays Odie:

“Standing in a bar in the French Quarter dressed as a clown, I invited the tourist I had met the night before to come home with me. ‘We had a great evening and I don’t want to spoil it,’ he said, ‘sometimes I try to make too much of a good thing.’

“I agreed with him, our one night had already turned into two and the most sensible thing would be to spend the rest of our Halloween weekend with friends, not with a stranger from out of town. Fortunately, I am not always rational. The stranger stayed.

“I wrote ‘A Good Thing’ the next day and the rest of the album the following year. This whole project is just a step-by-step description of me falling in love.
