GIVE IT A LISTEN!
On the eve of her first national tour in almost two years, Leslie Hall, the mother of all things gem, will release a 7’’ dance remix featuring tracks by Utopia Park and Titus Jones on the Maximum Ames Records vinyl label.
Hall’s first vinyl release arrives in a custom package handmade by Leslie herself and features remixes of “Tight Pants/Body Rolls” by Utopia Park and “Blame the Booty” by mashup artist Titus Jones. This all-white limited edition exercise record will be officially released on Feb. 21 and will be limited to 200 copies.
Since the inception of Leslie and the Ly’s in 2005, Leslie Hall has taken the nation by storm – infusing Iowa hip-hop with esoteric fashion, death-defying stage moves and heart-breaking body rolls. To date, Leslie has released five albums, including the 2011 album Destination Friendship. Since coming off the road two years ago, Leslie – also a gem sweater curator, spandex pants designer, visual artist and marriage officiant – has kept very busy writing tunes for Destination Friendship, touring with Yo Gabba Gabba, and becoming the first Ames artist to land a spot on The Jimmy Fallon Show.
After the release, including a release show at the Ames Pantorium at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 15 with Pennyhawk and Ramona and the Swimsuits, Leslie and the Ly’s will embark on a six-week nationwide tour.
