Femme-Metal Friday: Leah “Winter Sun”

Leah & Eric Peterson

For the next few weeks, I think I am going to do something a little different and put the reviewing on cruise control, so to speak. The holidays are fast approaching, so why not look for some seasonally appropriate music?

Granted, I am really putting it on cruise control this week: it's a lyric video, and it's also from two years ago. But good music is timeless, right?

This week, I am reviewing the “Celtic folk metal” vocalist Leah, whose musical description sounds pretty bad-ass. Further solidifying her bad-assery, she has joined forces with Testament guitarist Eric Peterson. Then, they proceeded to write this song in 3 days, in different countries altogether, using nothing but smartphone apps to compose the song! That's bad-ass, in my book!

Using background images of Leah (who sings beautifully), Eric (who sheds masterfully), and a frozen stream in the snow-capped wilderness, it's the perfect song for ushering in the winter season without being a holiday song. It's perfect for those who want to celebrate the season, but either hate Christmas music or are sick to death of hearing it. Christmas is not the only winter holiday, and this is perfect for Solstice, or just for welcoming in winter.
