break it down Leon
Even the most talented artists take time crafting certain records. Leon Bridges said it took him over two years to come up with “Lisa Sawyer,” but the finished product is amazing. After cooking up the chord progression, he write a song about crayons just to perfect the melody. After a while, he decided to write lyrics about his mother, even though he didn’t know much about her past. But he used the little he knew to build a song.
Check out him explain his relationship with his mother now and how she felt when she first heard the single in the latest episode of DECODED, as he even performs the song for the clip.
