about

~Cosmic Country~

Cruising down Highway 1 in Big Sur with the windows down, close your eyes and smell the salty ocean breeze whispering through the pines. It is a gorgeous and crisp evening on the California Central Coast. Turn up the stereo and listen to the groovy sounds of pedal steel and fiddle licks as they weave through the buttery vocals of Miss Leo, the same way your car weaves around the hairpin turns along the coastline.

This groovy track is a pure vibe; ringing in classic country and honky tonk coupled with a modern Americana twang. Leave your troubles at home, throw your phone out the window, and hop on the bus for a soulful musical treat with Miss Leo. Envision the moonrise over the rolling hills and sing along with this catchy country-folk gem while the sun sets over the Pacific.

lyrics

Wandering I go, down this road of life. My mind’s always stuck in the past.

Thinking on things I shouldn’t have done, stuck on all the time that I’ve lost


Carrying on, I try to lighten my load. Try to find time to clear my mind.

Head to the hills where I can take it slow, leave the phone, I gotta go.


CHORUS:

Oooh big moon shining. Oooh Big Sur nights.

Talk to me, whispering pines. I’m your California child.


Drive down the highway all high and mighty, Waylon on the radio.
Far from me are all my troubles and worries, they’re waiting for me on down the road.
Life’s uncertain. You know it ain’t easy, always running around.
Stay with me for a while, and wipe away that frown.

CHORUS

One thing I know that’s for sure, hearts were made to be broken.
So get up, get down, quit lyin’ around, and leave no words unspoken.

CHORUS
