Lexi Larsen
Born
and raised in western Nebraska, Lexi Larsen is a soulful sounding small-town
girl with big city appeal. From the Galaxy of Stars Search to the regional
Colgate Country Showdown, Lexi has been building a solid fan base across the
country. The country music newcomer recently released her debut album Good Memories with self-penned songs
like “He’s On A John Deere,” “Something About A Sunday” and her new single “You
Can Leave” which shipped to radio January 20th and in just a few
short days made big waves in the independent country charts. Good Memories pairs her with some of
Nashville’s greatest musicians to create a sound that is highly addicting and
uniquely Lexi.
Lexi
funded her album Good Memories
through Kickstarter with the help of her fervent fan base. The fans spoke up
and showed their confidence in her and love for her music. Before the 30 day
time period was up, she had collected a veritable mountain of donations to make
the album she’d dreamed of. Good Memories
is available now on iTunes.
The
Nashville-based singer/songwriter has captivated crowds as far away as Xian,
China with a combination of her unassuming charm and powerhouse voice. She has
taken herself and her band on three summer tours that have taken her from the
wild motorcycle rally in Sturgis, South Dakota to two sold-out shows in her
home state of Nebraska. She has opened for Country Music Hall of Famer and
music legend Ronnie Milsap, hitmaker Phil Vassar, Warner Bros recording trio
Gloriana as well as acts like Grammy-nominated Emerson Drive and most recently
the award-winning Restless Heart. With her country cool, she's at home anywhere
and garnering lifelong fans with the work of a few notes.
Like her single says—you
can leave, but you won't want to.
