One of the most incredible things about great music is that it has the ability to take the listener to a place they'd rather be. A compelling song can carry someone back in time to a treasured memory, or transport a person to a spectacular western prairie they've only visited in their dreams. Ned LeDoux's music has that kind of power.\r
\r
As a songwriter, he has a knack for bringing people, places and emotions vibrantly to life with his insightful lyrics, and warm, strong voice that makes him soundlike a beloved friend you always want to hang out with. Those gifts are fully on display on LeDoux's new album Buckskin.

'I'm writing my own story and if people take a liking to it, that's wonderful,' says LeDoux. 'As long as I'm writing from the heart, and writing about what I know, I can definitely listen back to it and be proud.'On his thirdfull-length album, LeDoux again delivers songs that transcend mere entertainment to celebrate a life that many aspire to, but few actually live. Like his father, LeDoux's music is as expansive as the western sky he was raised under and celebrates the ranch lifestyle that is such an integral part of his heritage.\r
\r
There's an authenticity to his songs that brings our nation's beloved western culture to life, even for listener's who've never ventured onto the Great Plains.'I'm proud to carry on the tradition and a lot of songs that I write are going to relate with songs that my dad wrote and recorded because I lived the same life,' the young singer/songwriter says. 'I was born and raised on a ranch, which my family still owns outside of Kaycee, Wyoming. That was my life and it's reflected in the songs I write. I just think back to those days working on a ranch and hanging out with my granddad, who taught me how to drive a tractor, work cows and everything that is associated with ranching, but music has always been my dream.'\r
\r
LeDoux began pursuing that dream at an early age, and even though he grew up in the shadow of his legendary father, he's successfully carved his own path. 'If I can be half the man he was I think I'll be okay,' he says with an easygoing grin, 'but when it comes to songwriting I've got to write my own story. I've played drums for years and got my first band when I was in junior high. I went on to play drums with my dad from 1998 until he passed away in 2005, and then I started doing solo gigs.'\r

LeDoux made his recording debut with the 2016 EP Forever a Cowboyand followed up with his first full-length project, Sagebrush, in 2017 and Next In Line 2019. All three projects, as well as his new effort, Buckskin, were produced by singer/songwriter/guitarist Mac McAnally, who has won the CMA Musician of the Year Award an unprecedented 10 times. 'He's my songwriting mentor and his guidance in the studio is wonderful,' LeDoux says. 'He's a great guy to be around. Nobody phrases things like he does. I don't know if there's something in that Muscle Shoals water or what, but he's a very inspiring character.
