about

New album release by Shotgun Records
"NOW THIS KNIGHT HAS FALLEN" by Bill Leighly

The best way I can describe Bill Leighly would be that warm and inviting coffee shop on a rainy autumn day. The fireplace is burning and there are old books and magazines scattered about and you just want to stay there forever, even though you know eventually the cold, hard world will beckon you back. But you can always return, and Bill will be there.

Bill Leighly, one of the most prolific and brilliant songwriters I have ever known, passed away on May 3, 2023. Shortly before returning to the stars, he and I (Shotgun Records) discussed releasing an album featuring a collection of his brilliant work. This is that album, released two weeks following his passing. As you listen, I am convinced you will be captured by the heart and soul of an exemplary and incomparable artist and a beautiful human being.
