Leeland! Leeland! Leeland! This is what I tell all of my friends constantly. I'll just walk up to a random person and shout "Leeland!" Sometimes they'll get mad at me, but I can't help it. I have to share my enthusiasm about Leeland with the world. Leeland is absolutely amazing. They became my favorite band after the first time I listened to their songs. I am just so happy that Leeland exists. On iTunes they're rated four and a half. That should say enough in itself. I heard about Leeland from a girl at my church. She was singing their mains song, "Sound of Melodies," and I really liked what I was hearing. I asked her for all of the details and later that week Leeland was on my iPod. Now they're all I ever listen to. I'm dying for their next album to come out. My church also plays some Leeland songs now. They're getting popular everywhere and they're getting popular fast. Soon the whole world will love them. Leeland is by far the best Christian band I have ever heard of. They are brand new, and they’re awesome! They have eleven songs on this first album that they have released. Some of these songs are serious and some are just fun. Their songs include: Sound of Melodies, Reaching, Yes You Have, Can't Stop, Tears of the Saints, Beautiful Lord, Lift Your Eyes, Hey, Too Much, How, Wonderful, and Carried to the Table. Each song is very good. My personally favorite is "Reaching." Leeland is such a good band and they play really, really well together. Sometimes I wonder what it means to be a good band, and I've never had that question answered to me in words. The answer to that question, however, is in Leeland’s music. Listening to their songs tells you what a true good band is. A truly good band must also be completely devoted to God. Playing for God's glory gives a band such passion, such drive, such purpose. This makes them play several times better than any non-christian band. Leeland is so devoted to God. You can easily understand what I mean by listening to their songs. I've never really heard anyone who's heard Leeland say that they truly don't like them. If you want to here their songs, just search around online for two minutes. Tons of sites have samples. Leeland is a band that deserves to be listened to. They also have nice artwork. On top of all that I've mentioned so far, Leeland is also greatly supported by Michael W. Smith. Smith is an amazing Christian singer, and I promise you, if Leeland has his support, they MUST be good. Leeland is the best band you will ever listen to. I'm not kidding at all.

About a year ago I went to see Third Day in concert and Leeland was one of the bands opening up for them. I had never heard of them and didn't expect much, epecially since I was all pumped up for Third Day. Needless to say I was blown away by their preformance. It is rare to find a band that sounded this polished when most of the band members are only 18-20 years old. Mac Powell of Third Day said he wished that Third Day sounded that good when they were that young. As for the music, I tell you if you could own one praise and worship album this would be it. Sound of Melody, Carried to the Table, and Tears from the Saints are all top notch songs that are contantly played at my house. Anyway this is one of the better bands that has come out lately, and coming from a person who would rather listen to Heavy Metal that praise and worship that says alot.Read full review
this album is great, I recently attended a Greg Laure concert where this band performed, after hearing them, I said, they are great, I must get this album! The main vocal guy is very young, but writes most of his own songs and has an incredible voice. We thought he sounded a lot like Bono of U2. I love listening to this youthful band, they are very inspiring. You will hear a lot more from these guys, they are cutting edge and the lyrics are so personal, so moving. Go out and get this album, my fave are the title track "sounds of Melodies" and "Yes you have".
I did not like the way the songs were played. Esp. Carry me to the Table. There doesn't seem to be any worship of God behind it, which makes a big difference in how the songs are perceived. Cayrry me to the table should be single and have a worship attitude. It would be a best seller.

I saw Leeland perform on Daystar Television. I loved the music and decided to buy the CD. I love all the songs! The music is very modern and very worshipful. This is a young band and full of passion and life. It is evident that they have a strong love for God and leading others to the Truth. I will buy their next CD whenever they record one...
