The electric energy of Agnes Blues Roots and Rock Festival 2025 is really ramping up, with powerhouse female artist Lecia Louise set to rock the Marquee Stage and make a special encore appearance on the Discovery Stage for the first time in February.
From rock to blues to Americana and soul, the internationally acclaimed Lecia Louise embraces her musical diversity with accomplished virtuosity, not only as a guitarist but also as a singer-songwriter. Since her single release “My Everything” stormed to Number 1 on the Triple J Unearthed Charts across ALL genres, Lecia continues to mesmerise audiences in sell-out shows around the world.
‘Clean, elegant, tasty playing!!! I watched 3 times!!! Shred on!!!!!’ raved Alice Cooper’s guitarist Nita Strauss after seeing Lecia perform. Malcolm Foster, bassist for The Pretenders and Simple Minds, is also a huge fan, acknowledging Lecia as ‘a seriously cool guitarist as well as a fantastic singer’.
Having performed at many festivals including Blues on Broadbeach, Tamworth, Woodford Folk Festival, Woodford’s Dreaming Festival, Mullumbimby festival, Sunshine Rock and Blues Festival, Airlie Beach Music Festival, The Deni Ute Muster and more, Lecia has also enjoyed passing on her knowledge through workshops and music lessons and was selected as a tutor and key performer at the Adelaide International Guitar Festival in 2022.
Lecia’s career commenced with a Bachelor of Popular Music with Honors in 2004 and she has continued to be a highly sought-after session guitarist ever since, along with being an acclaimed performing artist in her own right.
Lecia has shared the bill with some of Australia’s greatest acts including The Black Sorrows, Thirsty Merc, Jon Stevens, Don Walker, Daryl Braithwaite, Grinspoon, The Baby Animals, James Morrison, Phil Emmanuel and many more.
On her decision to choose music as her profession Lecia says “As a creative individual, the ability to write, record and perform my own songs is an incredibly rewarding experience. As a qualified teacher I also get to share my musical journey with a wide range of students. I especially love doing master classes and workshops and see the next generation of musicians growing into potential music professionals of the future.”
An award-winning songwriter and performer, Lecia’s original music has been featured on TV, and radio stations nationally and internationally. She has a loyal fan base which has seen her support grow through years of hard touring and blistering performances at a number of Rock and Blues festivals around Australia. She has a growing discography spanning back to 2005 with more brand-new music waiting in the wings.
