Leetham, Micah Willis, Angie Petty @ Metro Music Hall 7/18. Summer is in full swing, and that means shows, shows and more shows. If you're looking for a fun show with tons of energy, you'll want to catch this one at Metro Music Hall. One of SLC's favorite queer pop artists, Leetham will be out in full force sharing their catchy, fun bops. Leetham's most recent song "NSA" is a collaboration with Micah Willis, who is also on the bill for the evening. The song has deep bass, steamy lyrics and a catchy chorus. Leetham's beats are always insanely addicting, and this one is no exception. Their other single from this year, "Boys," is a perfect summer pop anthem that will have you dancing all night long. Willis, meanwhile, is a Utah native who splits time between here and L.A., all while singing, writing and even acting.

Also on the bill is Angie Petty, an R&B/pop artist whose latest single, "Lost On Me," is easy to get lost in. The soulful way Petty sings will entrance you and keep you coming back for more, getting lost in the luscious landscape.
