kissing the flint – creating sparks

Multi-award nominated international singer-songwriter Leah Jett is an Australian-brewed artist, Scottish-distilled since 2020 where she has been based in her father’s native land. Leah created Kissing The Flint (translation: creating a spark) to cut through the fakery of the modern world. Fueled by an authentic, adventurous spirit, powerhouse voice and shape-shifting depth of songwriting alchemy, she captivates audiences with heartfelt stories and vivid imagery, softness and sass – moving easily from melodic, roots beauty to empowered rock raunch, one mesmerising moment to the next.

Kissing The Flint
πŸ˜ˆπŸ‘»πŸ˜ΌπŸ¦Ήβ€β™€οΈπŸ§β€β™€οΈπŸ§Ÿβ€β™€οΈ We had a wonderful time last night celebrating the end of harvest and Halloween (Samhein for us) at the Kenmuir Arms! As always, the welcome was warm from Chris and Beth and their fabulous crew and the food totally delicious. This place is definitely a world class dining experience! The pork hotpot accompanied by sides such as red cabbage, mushy peas and cassoulet were packed with autumn flavours, so fresh and nutritious. Followed by the most melt in the mouth apple crumble I've ever tasted, drenched in scrumptious custard so rich with vanilla notes. With full bellies, Ken and I then loosened our belts, put on our big gig hats and grooved out a few hours of tunes. It's always a thrill when we get requests for our own songs! I even played one of my newer ones, 'Out For Blood' which pays homage to a sexy female vampire. Happy Halloween! πŸ’ƒπŸ¦‡πŸDid I mention that I love my 'job'? 😁🀩🀟🏻 ... See MoreSee Less
