Leggy

Ohio's dream-punk three-piece Leggy were founded after lead singer Véronique Allaer suffered a rather grim accident in 2012. Allaer took a tumble from a fire escape, breaking her hip, which subsequently led her to drop her graduate school plans and move in with friends Kerstin Bladh and Christopher Campbell in Cincinnati. Having already played music together in high school, the trio began working on compositions of their own with Allaer on lead vocals and guitar, Bladh on bass and backing vocals, and Campbell on drums. Their sound was pitched somewhere between classic punk and '90s grunge, with bubblegum pop melodies and a lineage you could trace back to fellow Midwesterners Wussy. The trio were originally known as Sweet Teeth but switched to Leggy after discovering an Australian band of the same name. Leggy self-released their first EP, Cavity Castle, in 2014, and followed that up with the six-track Nice Try EP in 2015. The band toured extensively in 2016, and with yet another EP, Dang, under their belt they secured a spot at SXSW festival in Texas. Their performance caught the ear of George Gargan, head of the U.K. label Damnably, who signed them immediately. The British label wasted little time putting out the band's music, releasing their self-titled debut later that year. Leggy compiled tracks from their previous EPs and featured one new song.
