Landon

Landon, the spearhead of Landon Band, is anything but soft-spoken. The fearless female dominates the stage with strong vocals and emotionally provocative performances.

If comparisons need to be made, Chrissie Hynde comes to mind not because of similar styles but because of powerful vocals contrasting the hard edge of rock-n-roll. If Trent and Shirley were to wrap up, Landon Band would be the bloodshed.
