Four oceans, songstresses and visionaries flowing seamlessly through genres and languages to reveal the musical currents that connect us all. Ley Line is the synchronistic union of Austinites Kate and Emilie and twin sisters, Maddy and Lydia. Rooted in rhythm and close harmony, Ley Line blends influences from North America, Europe, Latin America, and West Africa taking listeners on a musical journey. Established in 2016, Ley Line has been acknowledged in their hometown’s thriving musical community with performances at Austin City Limits music festival and features as KUTX’s Artist of the Month. On the heels of their 2016 album, Field Notes, their sophomore release, 2020’s We Saw Blue has been described as a “healing wash…in a time of isolation of turmoil.” A self-produced Visual Album beautifully weaves together the songs with imagery and documentary footage of the group’s three month journey through Brazil that inspired the album. Ley Line has graced notable stages such as the Kerrville Folk Festival, The Northwest String Summit, SXSW, and the Telluride Bluegrass Festival alongside Bonnie Paine (Elephant Revival). They have also developed Travel By Sound, an educational program for youth and adults that promotes cross-cultural understanding and sharpens collective vision via authentic self-expression.
