I saw them at the harvest crusade in anaheim, cali. Doesnt get much better vocally in my opinion. For someone so young, Leeland has so much raw hidden talent. im waiting patiently to see what's next. Opposite way is one of the best written songs of 2008. Listen to the lyrics carefully. What a joy to see these guys on pandora. God bless richly...... . . . . . . . .

I don't know where the reviewer got the name Austin Tirado. The name of the other guitarist is Matt Campbell. I've seen the band in concert twice (with tickets to a third concert). They're awesome. I was able to meet them in the autograph line. God has truly blessed them.

I saw Leeland in Colorado Springs at the Desperation youth convention during worship. Made it all more the better. Can't get some of the songs out of my mind!

I have Leeland's "Opposite Way" album and I can't stop listening to it! This really is one of the best and most unique christian bands out there! I highly recommend their new album. you'll love it!!

The most innovative Christian artists of our time. You can hate them for having a religious agenda, but you won't be able get past their obvious musical talent.
