"Ledbelly" is a unique spelling of the nickname given to the famous folk and blues singer, Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter. The surname is a common thread of Huddie and owner, Melinda Ledbetter.
Lead Belly was a musician in the early 1900's. Some of his most notable songs include "Goodnight Irene" and "Midnight Special". He is also well known for covering, "The House of the Rising Sun" a traditional song telling a person's life gone wrong in the city of New Orleans. While the most successful commercial version of this song was recorded in 1964 by British rock band (The Animals), Lead Belly recorded two versions of the song in February 1944 and in October 1948 called "In New Orleans" and respectively, "The House of the Rising Sun".
The soul and vibe of the Lead Belly blues and roaring twenties, forties, and sixties are alive and well in our shop. You might even see Lead Belly music quotes from time to time...
