Miss Bix Announces New Album, 'Bring It'

MEMPHIS, Tenn. - March 17, 2022 - PRLog -- Leslie Letven Bixler (aka Miss Bix) emerges as a phoenix from the ashes with her forthcoming album, Bring It. A global pandemic, social unrest and California wildfires that claimed the Bixler home could have easily depleted her creative spirit, but instead Bixler has turned some of the worst of times into fodder for her striking new creation.

Thirteen original tracks add the sounds of North Mississippi Hill Country and New Orleans to the Delta blues grooves explored on her acclaimed previous release, We Don't Own The Blues. Stepping into the lead producer role for the first time was an empowering affirmation of inner strength for Bixler and a joy to witness the talents of engineer Charley Pollard of Dragonfly Creek Studios.  Guest spots including the superb vocals of IBC winner Keeshea Pratt, New Orleans chanteuse Tiffany Pollack, Jimmy Z on harmonica (Eurythmics) and Tom Canning on keys (Al Jarreau) add interesting new layers to the Miss Bix blues sound.

"In many ways, this album release is a milestone for Blue Heart Records as much as it is for Leslie," says label partner Sallie Bengtson. "Blue Heart Records began in 2020 with We Don't Own The Blues as our first album, and now Bring It is the 26^th release in our catalog. It is rewarding to witness the forward momentum and progress for all of us, in spite of the personal and professional challenges we've faced in the last two years."

"Hopefully, Bring It is a marriage between my own style and blues influences that I love," says Bixler. "To me, the blues stays alive by being reinterpreted for the times. I try to push my writing to get better and not churn out the same stuff."

Album preorders are available beginning April 23. Pre-saves and pre-adds available now at https://lnk.to/BringItMissBixPR.
