Leah Harris Releases "Shine"

R&B/Soul singer-songwriter, pianist, and entrepreneur Leah Harris debuts her new single, "Shine."

Leah wrote this song with inspiration from the unique creative journeys undertaken by artists and entrepreneurs. This track was recorded in Nashville and produced by Sal Oliveri, best known for his work on GRAMMY-nominated tracks by P!nk and Chris Stapleton.

The single release will be followed in July by a music video featuring muralist Andaluz the Artist spray-painting an old piano, and lead Broadway performer Olutayo, dancing a self-choreographed routine. “It takes determination to wake up every morning and pursue a nontraditional dream,” said Leah Harris. “I wrote this song as a reminder that, even though it can be a tough road, the unique work of creatives is impactful and deeply appreciated.”

Leah Harris' latest releases are currently on Spotify's ‘Discover Weekly’ playlist and her past releases have been featured on over 800 other playlists, receiving more than 350,000 Spotify streams. Leah Harris has been featured on several magazine covers in the Detroit area and recognized for her contributions to the Stockholm, Dublin, and Helsinki music scenes, where she lived for nearly a decade before moving to New York City.
