Leanna Crawford: Artist Profile + Playlist

Leanna Crawford (28) is an American Christian singer/songwriter known for her honest lyrics and relatability.

Leanna grew up in rural northwest Washington, loving the outdoors and nature. As the third of four kids, she was homeschooled and received her music business degree from Northwest University in Kirkland, WA. Journaling and storytelling are passionate pastimes. During a mission trip when she was 15, she felt a sure call to go into music as ministry, specifically to encourage young girls and women.

During a songwriting conference during her Junior year of college, she was called up to an open mic, where she performed in front of Matthew West, though at the time she didn’t know it. West later talked to her, eventually bringing her on tour, and was a large part of her early label/management.

During the 2020 lockdowns, she created a YouTube series called Leanna Loves designed to let people get to know her a little more and share other things she loves.

Leanna currently resides in Nashville, TN. She is married to Cody Zeller, an NBA basketball player.
