Live at The Option with Alex Leggett
Live at The Option is an emerging video series by Kingston Punk Productions, which features intimate performances in one of the city’s smallest, most unlikely venues. “The Option” being Brian’s Record Option, the ever-popular and forever-enduring downtown record shop, which was established in 1980 at 381 Princess. This iconic store provides an impressive and unique backdrop for this live performance series, which positions artists in narrow aisles that are busting with vinyl, cassettes, books and other bits of musical nostalgia.
In this forth episode of Live at the Option, Alex Leggett, a singer/songwriter from Gananoque, performs a pair of tunes (hit play above and here). Both of the songs performed by Alex perfectly embody his eclectic nature, unique sound and lyrical perspective. Below, you’ll also find his feature chat with Brian Lispin, where the discussion covers ample ground ranging from the therapeutic benefits of song writing to the delicate art of developing a tour schedule.
