I’m David Leone, I’m a songwriter, and I’d like to introduce you to Highway 80 Stories. This ongoing project is a series of connected stories and songs about the region of the South that Highway 80 runs through in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia.
There are songs and stories about Southern history and culture, major issues like the Civil Rights Struggle, Slavery, and the Civil War, as well as stuff like moonshine and bootlegging. How this history impacted the lives of my fictional characters is the primary theme of my project.
And if you like what you hear and read, here’s how you can support Highway 80 Stories. You can download songs from Bandcamp or better still, subscribe and have access to stream my entire catalog, as well as get bonus features.
Thank you.
Here’s what you get:
- All the new music I make streaming instantly on your mobile device via the free Bandcamp app, and also available as a high-quality download.*
- These back-catalog releases:
- The satisfaction of knowing you’re supporting me in a sustainable way.
