Within two years since her debut, Lee-Leet self-released two more albums. ”

"I’m pleased to announce that Lee-Leet has now achieved 100% of her target budget of fan funding for her third album’s tour and promotion through SellaBand, the world’s premier independent music crowd funding platform."

"Thanks to the Internet, the independent Polish artist Lee-Leet with her hit song "So High" is winning in radio charts for the last few weeks running against artists from major record companies. This is the sign of the things to come, the future that the middlemen will find hard to accept. But we don't need middlemen anymore because we have the Internet."

“Leave it Behind” is not something you will want to do with this album. The tracks are both startling and demure in their captivating impact. There’s a very human drama being played out in the music; I sense the limits of emotion, the challenge of being honest, the allure of illusion, and the power of self-realisation. The lyrics, the musical backing, and Lee-Leet’s expressive voice are deftly entwined to create intense and unusual musical flavours.”

“Szymon Golab, a music journalist, wrote in the review of Lee-Leet’s latest album: „ Even when making the most difficult and demanding comparisons to Porcupine Tree or to the compact suites of Roger Waters, “Leave It Behind” does not serve as contrast but continuity, not background, but foreground of those great musical stories."”

“Szymon Golab, a music journalist, wrote in his review of Lee-Leet’s first two albums: “In the case of Lee-Leet, choosing to write lyrics in English is not a matter of just favouring the latest fashion, or seeking easy phrasing. This music emerges from a language older than speech, the language of the heart, in which the human voice tends to the whisper.... What's more, there's an amazing fusion of styles in the way “Bare” is composed, as it takes quite remarkable artistic skill and musicality to range freely and convincingly from classical and jazz idioms to those to which we have become accustomed in the cool, somewhat gothic aesthetic of Bat for Lashes, or Tori Amos.””

"This album is hard to classify as it doesn't follow any trends or fashions. It doesn't try to fit into the current "hot sells" category either. No, Lee-Leet sang and played what she felt and what she wanted. We keep our fingers crossed! It looks like a great beginning" - said Grzegorz Zembrowski, a music journalist at the leading Polish nationwide radio station (PR 3), commenting on Lee-Leet's debut album "State of Emergency".
