Leslie Cours Mather

Leslie Cours Mather stands by her own lyric, “I never knew I was a fighter. I’m a survivor”. Emotion and life experience have played a huge role in Mather’s career, and she continues to face life’s challenges head on. Her young daughter waged a successful battle against a shocking leukemia diagnosis. Her beloved father passed away very suddenly in 2016. And that same year, the singer was unexpectedly put on dialysis which lead to a kidney transplant. “It’s overwhelming to think about,” she admits, “but I survived and I’m stronger for it.” Her music certainly proves that. On the other side of these crises, the singer is charging full steam ahead. I’m A Survivor grabbed Top 20 on the Billboard AC chart and her latest single We Should Try Again earned Billboard’s Highest Ranking Debut status. The singer/songwriter has five albums lined up for release and she couldn’t be more excited for 2018.

Although the unrelenting singer-songwriter sometimes questions why life threw her the curveballs it did, Leslie Cours Mather stands by the attitude that you can’t control what life hands you, but you can control how you handle life. “I’ve had a few bumps in the road, but I choose to stay positive. I’m very proud of what I’ve accomplished, especially considering the obstacles. My music is representative of who I am. I’m enjoying the moment, connecting with people and their real stories, and not worrying about the outcome. I’m A Survivor.”
