Episode 552 (Part Two): Eva Leach, on songwriting as an expression of female empowerment

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qX1C-4TDLc Welcome to Part Two of the Slow Flowers Podcast, Episode 522, a special bonus conversation with singer-songwriter Eva Leach. I'm honored that she's sharing her new original music with us. If you’ve attended Holly Chapple’s Flowerstock Festival, you’ve already been treated to live performances by Eva and her frequent collaborator (and brother) Nathan Leach. Nathan & Eva is a Musical Duo from Charleston, South Carolina. The origins of their story are pretty recent and immensely fascinating. While in school at USC Columbia, Nathan longed to get back into guitar playing, so he began to post cover songs on YouTube. Over time, he expanded the roster of featured talent to include the occasional help from his sister, Eva. In 2013, they posted a cover of Family of the Year’s “Hero”. In 2015, that video went viral. It’s mindboggling to say this, but music videos on the Nathan & Eva YouTube channel have been viewed more than 26 MILLION times. In 2018, I was inspired to invite them to join me on the Slow Flowers Podcast holiday music show (Episode 340). In celebration of Eva's new EP Sick Girl, released April 1st, we recorded this interview, in which you'll hear two of her three original new songs.
