Leslie Mendelson is riding a wave of acclaim for her most recent studio album If You Can't Say Anything Nice..., as well as her solo acoustic EP In The Meantime, which was recorded during the 2020 lockdown. All Music writes that Leslie evokes 1970s songwriter influences in the vein of Carole King and Carly Simon, while The Aquarian calls her the closest thing one can get to a truly honest musical experience.
Leslie Mendelson's previous work, including 2009 Grammy-nominated debut album Swan Feathers and 2017 album, Love & Murder dealt with matters of the heart. When it came time to compose the songs that comprise 'If You Can't Say Anything Nice...,' however, she and her longtime writing partner Steve McEwan set out to examine the anxiety stemming from the current socio-political climate with songs like Medication, I Need Something To Care About and Would You Give Up Your Gun. It's a fitting extension of a more socially conscious outlook offered on A Human Touch—Leslie's duet with Jackson Browne for the documentary film, '5B,' which is also included on his 2021 album, Downhill From Everywhere.
