LESLIE SATCHER

At age 26, native Texan Leslie Satcher moved to Nashville in pursuit of a singing career and was quickly recognized for her gift with lyric and melody. After being mentored at a smaller publisher by many of the music industry’s most legendary songwriters, she made the move to Sony Music Publishing where she stayed for nearly 15 years. During this time, she was also signed as an artist at Warner Brothers. While recording her critically acclaimed debut album, Love Letters, her songs were growing in demand.

Though Satcher is primarily known as a country singer/songwriter, her talents cross all genres. She has written or co-written songs that have been recorded by Sheryl Crow, Sheila E., Vince Gill, Ariana Grande, Keb’ Mo', Martina McBride, Willie Nelson, Bonnie Raitt, Blake Shelton, George Strait, and many more. She has received multiple BMI “Million-Air” awards recognizing a song’s one millionth airplay and her incomparable vocals contribute to an astounding number of GRAMMY-, CMA- and ACM-winning projects.

In 2015, Satcher found her new creative home with Notting Hill Music Publishing. Satcher's fourth studio album, 2018's Leslie Satcher & The Electric Honey Badgers — 2 Days In Muscle Shoals features many of her favorite songwriters, musicians and vocalists. The single "This Won't Take Long" features Vince Gill and Sheryl Crow.
