Leanne Hoffman is a multi-disciplinary artist, songwriter, and producer living in Halifax, NS.
Her most recent release, The Text Collector, is the culmination of a year-long poetry project in which Hoffman wrote one poem a day for 365 days. Those poems are now published in a book called “The Text Collector: An Anthology”. The album was nominated for an East Coast Music Award for Pop Album of the Year and three Music Nova Scotia Awards. Using the swirling melodies and glitzed-up production of Top 40, The Text Collector builds tension between soundscapes primed for pure pleasure and lyrics that address the interconnected relationship between desire and despair. Her original artwork combined with projection design, creates a transformative, multi-faceted experience. The album deconstructs poetry and pop music, rebuilding the pieces into a listening experience even richer than the sum of its parts.
