Artist History Ginger Leigh is a fourth generation singer from Texas who has been fronting bands since the age of ten. Sarah Dashew grew up sailing around the world with her family most of her life. After sailing 75,000 miles of the world's oceans, Sarah left the boat to seek out her passion for music. The two met at an all women music jam in Austin, Texas and found the crowd loving their stream of conscious bledning of words, lyrical rhythm and harmonies. The duo formed their current band and have been touring worldwide for one year now.
