Anna Leddra Chapman - Story - Sings LIVE! on This Morning

From This Morning 12/1/10

Singer Leddra Chapman is one of the most hotly tipped music stars of 2010!

Leddra's track Single was released in late 2009. It made its mark on the music scene with the acoustic, catchy folk sound that seems set to propel Leddra to musical superstardom.

Leddra's debut album Telling Tales was also released in November last year, and the ten tracks caught the attention of music experts and fans alike, with even industry bible Music Week sitting up and taking notice, describing the talented singer as "filling a similar space to early Alanis Morrisette and Joni Mitchell", high praise indeed from the influential publication.

Leddra hails from Brentwood in Essex and is a student at the London College of Music, where she has learnt her craft and cut her performing teeth. Leddra's first foray into music started at the age of 12 when she picked up one of her dad's acoustic guitars and proceeded to write her first song, and she's never looked back.

The ambitious youngster divided her time between finishing school, writing songs, and learning how to produce demos of her songs in the small home-studio her dad had built in the garage. She was subsequently invited to perform at a number of small but prolific gigs, which led to her recording her album with musician and producer Peter-John Vettese, who has previously collaborated with big names Heather Small, Tina Arena and Jethro Tull.

She's such an amazing singer and seems like a genuinly lovely person. Any false claims about her abilities are a load of shite tbh. I'd be thrilled if i got to see her live.

Maybe should lie down now & let everybody say their piece. .. We are very proud to have Leddra play here in March and all places have gone in 36hrs. We recognised her as a big talent 2 years ago. She has a unique voice and a wonderful songwriting talent which is not to be knocked. There are a lot of folk who would like 1/2 of what she is capable of. Videos from our gig will be acoustic and no chance of intervention as we do not have the equipment!!

I myself not being from Britian would have to say that if someone , perhaps a small child even , was to be taught about the English and their culture , if the small child would of been me I would need to hear a song offered such as this one by miss chapman to help me understand better .

Saw her live in August. She's as good as this and better. She's amazing :) I listen to her album so much, that we have a phrase in our house... "The sainted Leddra". Now everytime they catch me listening to anything else, they ask why I am being unfaithful to the Sainted Leddra. Yes, THAT is how much I listen to her. I love her lyrics, and voice, and EVERYTHING.

I met her 4 years ago as a fledgeling and gave her feedback on her songs and said her style was like Alanisse Morisette. A wonderfully lovely person, down to earth, no ego, no airs or graces. I told her she'd go far as she was a hard worker, talented, and unlike most run of the mill singer/songwriters. Her family support her and she also kept her studies up, and most important of all did it because she enjoyed it, and not to be 'famous'. She deserves her success, and she never will sell out
