Who is Lesli Wood?

Lesli Wood is a voice in music of the type that one doesn't often hear. Clear and powerful vocals punctuate original lyrics from songs born of personal experience and worldwide travels. Her on-stage humor and general rapport with the audience make every show more of a personal visit than just a concert. Whether she is singing about her Aunt Reener's decision to "give it all to the Lord" or her dog's serious flea problem, Lesli's style leaves audiences coming back for more.

Lesli Wood was born in 1963 and grew up running barefoot through the hills of Arkansas. She has been performing, writing and singing music nearly all her life. Her first band, Oilfield Grass, played festivals and bars around Colorado and Houston, but went various directions in 1995 with a serious industry reorganization. Her solo career began in Houston shortly after that, then followed her to Austin in 1997, where she released of her first album titled Child of the Water. Lesli has played several festivals in Utah, Houston, Austin, Dripping Springs and has even graced a few bars in the Caribbean and South America. When she is not "channeling" Elvis Presley, she spends time hitting rocks of the real kind as a Doctor of Geology. She lives with her partner of 16 years in Bee Cave and enjoys traveling to all parts of the world. Lesli most enjoys playing music with her trio of excellent musicians, Robert Asocar, John Dunn and Tal Wiggins.
