“Women Want to Hear Women With Elaina” Featuring Leah Turner

by Elaina Doré Smith | November 27, 2018

Leah Turner has had such an interesting career since moving from California to Nashville in 2012. She is a true example of how finicky the country music industry can be—but her hard work and talent have not gone unnoticed.

While Leah has had many challenges, she’s also had many victories, including releasing her self-titled EP and charting two singles. Leah is one of the hardest working women in Nashville, and I’m thrilled we were able to sit down and chat. You’ll also find out how Leah originally sparked my idea for this podcast. Enjoy!
