Leon by Leon Bridges
Leon is an album by Leon Bridges, released in 2024. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 18 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Peaceful Place”, on 12 lists with a best position of #3.
Leon, Leon Bridges' fourth album, came out on Columbia on October 4, 2024, and as the bare title hints, it's the most personal thing he's made: a record circling his upbringing in Fort Worth, Texas, cut mostly in Mexico City with producers Ian Fitchuk and Daniel Tashian. After the after-hours R&B of Gold-Diggers Sound, he swaps the velvet for denim and leans into folk and country, the side of him that has always owed something to Townes Van Zandt.
"Peaceful Place" is the warm, unhurried heart of it, all hush and sway, and "Laredo" rolls along with dust on its boots. It's a long way from the vintage soul revival of his 2015 debut, Coming Home, and the reviews were generally kind.
