About Leatherbag

Reviews:

Anyone who has experienced a live Leatherbag show can attest to its full strength...one of the city's biggest little-known names.---Jacob Cottingham, Austin Monthly

Chances are very good you've never heard of Randy Reynolds, nor his stage name/project Leatherbag. Chances are also very good that that won't be the case much longer.---David Brown, npr.org

...balancing American classic rock & roll and New Sincerity realism.---Austin Powell, Austin Chronicle

..the songwriting sweep of Austin's Leatherbag, aka Randy Reynolds, is so broad and enveloping, it's an epic listen.---Jim Caligiuri, Austin Chronicle

The most refreshing thing about Reynolds' songwriting is his complete disregard for whatever everyone else seems to think is hip musically. His songs are both familiar and shockingly fresh thanks to this happy ignorance.---austinist.com

...immediately accessible, but not simple. Thanks to SXSW for a chance encounter with yet another band flying under the radar...---hearya.com

Each song is different, its own page in a book bound by thematic elements, instrumentation and Reynolds’ distinctively appealing voice.---bigdiction.net

...Reynolds' exceptional songwriting and archival ear...display a talented artist exploring his range while further defining his own voice.---Doug Freeman, Texas Music Magazine

Love & Harm tackles (with killer hooks and guitar riffs) the great schism between Past and Present that you’d more readily find in the works of great American authors and the Sunday Times Book Review than a pop album.---sideonetrackone.com

Leatherbag has emerged as one of the most talented new songwriters in a town where such praise is not lightly given...Reynolds strength lies in subtly scripted lyrics steeped in nostalgia for loves remembered and places imagined, all for the sake of the song.---The Austin Independent
