'Ginglik' States:

"Iona has a gorgeously ethereal and individual voice and is well on the road to being somebody in the burgeoning world of folk pop crossover."

Tim Carroll states:

"Iona Leigh has a gentle elusive edge to her voice that gorgeously complements the mythical mystery and other-worldly atmosphere of her songs. ... it demands your attention and weaves you into Iona’s spells."

Lyric of the Day

Sing a song of sad young men, pockets full of rye, all the news is bad again so kiss your dreams goodbye

Rickie Lee Jones

Iona Leigh sings spellbinding songs from a time when wolves roamed wild Caledonia . . .

It’s Iona Leigh’s voice – gorgeous and ethereal, dazzling in its command and elegance, which envelopes the listener in its luminous glow. Iona has an incredible talent for fusing ancient, traditional material with more contemporary influences to create something that is refreshing and unique. Iona's music is best described as an unusual and exciting mixture of Seth Lakeman's  foot-stomping rhythms, The Corrs' addictive melodies, and Sheila Chandra stunning vocals. 

Music Producer Adrian Carter states: "Iona Leigh blends her effortless vocal over a Celtic tinged folk backdrop. There's a intermingled sense of tradition and the contemporary in her work, and  a wonderful sense of melancholy in tracks like 'Must I Be Bound'."
