Inside the Sonic Dorm: A Conversation with Leah Martin-Brown (Love & Other Crimes)

From my Sonic Dorm to yours… 🎶🚪🎶

I had the pleasure of welcoming Leah Martin-Brown back to Sonic Dorms — this time to celebrate her powerful solo debut album, Love & Other Crimes, now available across all streaming platforms.

Discovered through my deep admiration for the legendary producer Robert John “Mutt” Lange, Leah has helped craft an album that fuses rock grit with super-pop grandeur — a high-octane, emotionally charged collection that proves both timeless & fresh; ear-candy through & through. Alongside collaborators Tony Nilsson and Tommy Deander, she’s created a dynamic body of work brimming with cinematic hooks, sharp songwriting, and the unmistakable spirit of classic “Mutt” Lange craftsmanship.

In our conversation, Leah and I dive into the making of Love & Other Crimes, the lessons learned through its creation, and how stepping into her own identity has redefined her as an artist and storyteller.

A must-listen for fans of bold, melodic rock with heart & conviction.
