If you are a fan of the show or not, Leighton has undeniable chops on the microphone. Like a siren, she stood memorizing and beautiful, unleashing sweet bluesy melodies to the crowd. In between songs, it was apparent that she didn’t have much performance experience, exclaiming that she was surprised with the crowd size and telling us she had dreams that nobody would come to her shows.
