‘Great friend’ visits Songbirds Friday

Nashvillian by way of Chattanooga with some New York, Los Angeles and Austin along the way, Leticia Wolf comes by her rainbow of genres honestly.

Although she’s a writer first, you have to wonder when she has time. The woman has her hands in myriad projects.

Wolf fronts hard-rock band The Dead Deads, who are working on their sixth studio release with producer Matt Mahaffey. She participates in a children’s project with Tom Petersson of Cheap Trick, and collaborates with hip-hop and country artists in Nashville.

She’s worked with Cowboy Jack Clement to Page Hamilton of Helmet. Recent achievements include penning lyrics to the TMNT Reboot for Nickelodeon and Honda’s latest Goldwing campaign, as well as songs for a new children’s show in development with Netflix.

And she still has time to do solo shows, such as her gig at Songbirds on Friday night, July 12.
